    • Good kennel, just check your door size width before putting it together in a different room. :)
Size: 36.0"L x 25.0"W x 27.0"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
Typical kennel. Easy to put together and hopefully will work well with our upcoming trip in the RV. My only complaint is with me.... make sure you put it together where you plan to keep it. I had a heck of a time fighting to get it in the camper without having to take it fully apart. I did it, but may have taken as much time as if I had of taken apart. By that point it was me being stubborn. Size wise, our pup is 43lbs and this is for 50lb starting weight. I think it may be a little tighter quarters then I would like for my dog if he was 60-70lbs. So for us, it is perfect size. ... show more

    • A Comfortable Dog Cave
Size: 32.0"L x 22.5"W x 24.0"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
My dog LIKES this kennel! I hired a professional trainer, to look into some new aggression between my younger dog and my older dog, and the trainer strongly, STRONGLY recommended getting the younger dog a kennel. I've always resisted that, but was worried enough about the older dog that I got this, put it together (easy), and set it up in the bedroom. I threw in a recently worn T-shirt, with my scent on it, and my younger dog LIKES IT! I haven't been shutting her in--in fact, I've removed the door for now. But whenever she's in there, I call her a "Good Kennel Dog," and she often chooses this as her sleeping location. This alone did not cure the aggression, but other suggestions from the trainer did. I'm happy to let this big kennel continue to take up (a lot of) room in my bedroom. ... show more

This is a sturdy crate that works well for a dog that you cannot keep in a cloth crate. It is lighter than a metal crate.

    • Better than the wire crates for our anxious dog.
Size: 28.0"L x 20.5"W x 21.5"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
We have a 14 lb mini-schnauzer rescue. He is high anxiety, and we have struggled with crate training him. We got the 28", and it seems to be the perfect size for him. He doesn't weigh much, but has a long, skinny body, and is tall and lanky for his weight. He is 22" long and 17" from floor to top of head when standing. It was clear that he instantly felt more comfortable with this crate, over the wire crate we first tried. I put a fluffy blanket inside, and he went in on his own and curled up! So happy. This is his new night time bed spot. It was easy to put together, has a handle, and doesn't appear to have any sharp edges or seams inside. It also doesn't have a strong plastic smell, which is fantastic. ... show more

    • Works for big kitties too
Size: 28.0"L x 20.5"W x 21.5"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
Petmate kennels have never let me down. I got this medium dog crate to transport a big semi feral cat 2.5 hours in the car. I figured it would be easier to get him in because the opening is so much roomier than a regular cat carrier. It worked perfectly. If you do this just have a big beach towel to drape over it. Helps keep them calm and protects you from them sticking their arms out the ventilation holes in the side (as they are larger than the cat crates). I stood the carrier on its bottom with the door opening at the top. surprised the cat from behind and just scooped him up and dropped him in. It’s now become a little hideout for a different anxious cat at home. 10/10 ... show more

Review Image by KailuaMauiMama KailuaMauiMama
TERRIBLE FOR AIR TRAVEL! This kennel cost me 2 missed flights and a rushed trip to a pet shop to buy a sturdier one for air travel. I wish I had read the one and two star reviews, especially since I was moving my dog across the ocean from Maui to the mainland. The first trip my dog escaped in cargo before take off by opening the door. I was removed from the flight to go get her, had to get rebooked for the next morning, had to depend on friends to pick me up at midnight and take me back to the airport at 530am only to have to go through it all again. The second time I zip tied the door closed, however my dog broke the latch mechanism (see red circle in the photo) and the airlines will not let a kennel that is damaged in any way onto a flight. She was removed from cargo before I even got to my gate. Take two of getting rebooked, getting another friend to pick us up, and getting other friends to take us back to the airport later that night. DO NOT BUY THIS KENNEL FOR AIR TRAVEL!! ... show more
