Compare them side by side

Getting the size right

Your dog should be able to stand up, turn around and lie down stretched out. Measure from nose to the base of the tail and from the floor to the top of the head, then add a few inches and compare with the maker's sizes.

For a puppy, buy the crate for their adult size and use a divider, if the crate has one, so the space grows with them.

Travel kennels

Hard-sided kennels with a secure door are the usual choice for car trips and flying. Airlines set their own kennel rules, so check with yours before you book.

Make it comfortable

A washable crate pad makes the crate a place your dog wants to be. Pads are sized to fit common crate sizes; match the pad to your crate's inside floor measurements.

Questions

What size crate does my dog need?

One where your dog can stand up, turn around and lie down stretched out. Measure your dog and compare with the maker's sizes.

Can I fly with my dog in these kennels?

Airlines set their own rules for kennels. Check with your airline before you book.

Should I put a bed in the crate?

A washable crate pad makes it more comfortable. For puppies still chewing everything, start with something durable and easy to wash.
