poll: crate size

[taryndanae]

just wondering whar size of crate BW fans use for their beloved friend?

I did use the 42" but my boy has free reign now.

I don't know the exact size, but we can both fit comfortably He is only in it when we aren't home or sleeping anyways(we don't yet trust him unsupervised and it's better for him because I don't worry about waking up to a big mess or a very sick or even worse pup), but I made sure it was more than big enough so he would be comfortable when he had to be in it

I don't think I meant to order one so big but Beau's is 48". I'm thinking of downsizing a bit so his crate doesn't take up half of my dining room!

I think mine is a 42 inch. I got the 2nd largest size they had, and it's perfectly comfortable for Lucy. She can stand in it, turn around, stretch out, and all that good stuff. It fits her regular bed plus her water/food bowls. Of course, we don't even have it set up anymore because she's pretty trustworthy now, but we'll put it back up when dexter comes home, and he will use it. We do use it when we take her out of town with us, and she goes in it, no problem.

I just bought Avery a new crate, its 42" and perfect for her, she's 72lbs (quite hefty I know!).

Chief still uses his 42" and fits comfortably! He's just over a year!

We've got the 36" and the 42" ones. Abbi had the 36" one until we brought Hayden home and then we moved him into it and her into the larger one. But seeing that she's so much comfier in the larger one and he's just as tall as she is now, we're going to upgrade his 36" to a 42".

I've always heard that dogs love their crates they feel safe and will go in them for quiet time or sleep. Indy looked like a cartoon character when we tried to put him in the crate all 4 paws spread to stop him from going in. Since he was 6 months old his crate is 2900 sf

Jake has a 42" now. Which they classify as Xlarge. I am actively looking for a Giant size (48") The current one is good but when he lays down, he cannot stretch his legs out all the way. Jake has learned to love his crate. He goes right in when he knows we are heading off to work and he runs in there when he gets in trouble (he must feel safe in there)
