Petmate Ultra Vari Dog Kennel, Medium 32in, for 30-50lbs Dogs

Purchased this for my 30 pound Border Collie. It's large enough for him to stand, turn around, and sleep in. It was one that I was sure was airline approved and it is light enough to easily handle. Has a good, sound metal door with a strong latching mechanism (unlike some of the other brands) and metal vents. The openings for hold-down straps are easy to use and the whole crate is holding up to use. The size was exactly the measurements advertised. The measurements listed are the outside, it is about 29" x 19.5" x 23" inside. The carrier fits inside the little Honda Insight. Additional Comments: Other reviews mentioned the lack of a handle. I have never seen carry handles on any carriers other than the smaller sizes, it is easier and safer to carry from the sides. Also, I wouldn't use this as a crate for daily crate training, it isn't roomy enough. This is really only designed for travel use.

Ordered this last minute before flying my senior dog from Texas through Hawaii to Guam. Easy to set up and worked well. Roomy enough for my 20 pound Boston Terrier to be in for her journey. The water bowl attachment fit perfectly to the door. I zip-tied the front and back, where they have holes for, per recommendation of the relocation company. Great kennel.

We got the 32" kennel for our Shiba, who loves to lounge inside it during the day and sleeps in it every night. We used to have the size just below, which he also fit into, but he had to duck down a little when inside ... So we decided to get him a bigger "condo" so he'd be more comfortable, and we can tell he appreciates the extra room. Very sturdy crate, no top handle on this size though, but there are "lift" hand holds on either side.

I bought this kennel for my active Corgi mix pup after he rampaged through a metal mesh kennel. I needed some way to be able to confine him and keep him from tearing apart the house. This kennel arrived with a small hole punch in the top back edge, like it was bumped into something during manufacture or packaging. The packaging was fine and I don't think it happened in transport, especially since the missing piece wasn't in the box. The defect didn't affect the structural integrity of the product and was merely a cosmetic blemish. The crate secures nicely, and there is a small hole along the top edge of the entrance where one can put zip ties for extra security during travel. Since I'm not using it for travel I simply drop a nail through the hole and that prevents the door from opening should the dog somehow get through the latches. The latches seem strong and are easy to use, and I've not had any problem with them not holding. The dog has chewed the plastic along the bottom inside edge but that hasn't affected the function of the crate. So far the crate has worked very well. My dog is a little over 30 lbs and fits comfortably. He can stand and turn and seems fairly content once he realizes he's being crated for awhile. He now sleeps in the crate all night long without a peep, thank goodness. Other than the inconsequential hole along the top, the crate has met all my expectations. I can't give a recommendation for travel, but for home use it has worked well, appears sturdy, and my dog seems to like it.

I bought a different version of this kennel and this one came up, but I thought I’d try it. I didn’t like it because it had the wires on the side and my dogs were trying to bite it and they were uncomfortable.

Works as intended. My heeler goes in it and lays does sometimes by himself, so I just keep the door open, unless I'm having a contractor over to work on something. Then he goes in and the door gets shut.

Looks sturdy and well made compared to other kennels. Nice thick plastic and metal hardware. Dark and cozy inside. Using this to fly my dog internationally. Just be aware, the sizing seems to be off. My dog is a 30lb beagle, so technically she should be in a crate one size smaller than the intermediate. I went one size up and she fits just perfectly in there; not too big, not too small. If I had gotten the size smaller like they suggest, it would have been much too small. I tested out the size larger than the intermediate in the pet store and that's what I would purchase for her if I were going to keep her crated during the day as it was a bit more roomy and comfortable looking.

The items were easy to assemble. And they were spacious for my guys. I bought two because of two dogs. I'd do it over again. Sturdy and well made.

Love this kennel. It has now been thru 2 puppies in 2 years and is perfect for the first few months until they outgrow it ( I have golden retrievers). As a reference for size my current girl is now 4 months old about 25lbs and still fits although it will be too small in the next month or so. Easy to put together and very easy to clean in the event of an accident. Door is easy to open and close and a puppy will not be able to open it. It's nice that it has open vents on the side and back as well as the door. I setup a fan on hot humid nights so that is blows directly at the kennel to keep her cool and the air moving. Once she outgrows it it will be taken apart and put away until it's needed again by myself or someone who needs to borrow it.

This kennel was purchased for airline travel and although not tested yet, appears to be very sturdy and well-ventilated. We ordered the metal hardware to reinforce the plastic nuts that come with the crate.

Es apropiada para perros de medianos a chicos. Fácil de trasportar y armar , es robusta y resistente

Très bon produit

Used the crate to fly my dog Internationally, and it held up nicely and he seemed to like the crate. No issues
