THE RIGHT SIZED DOG CRATE THE RIGHT SIZED DOG CRATE

What Size of Crate Does Your Dog Need?
When selecting a crate for a puppy, go ahead and get one that will fit the dog's need when she is fully-grown. Puppy Panels allow you to adjust the size of the crate and are available for larger crates while the puppy is growing. The dog should be able to comfortably walk in, turn around and lay down in the crate. Your pet should not feel cramped, but do not use a crate that is too big, that will defeat the purpose of giving the dog the sense of having his own enclosed "den." An oversized crate will also defeat the dog's natural instinct to keep her home clean and free of waste since she may use one end to rest and one end to "go."
