This crates works for a rottweiler??

I'd have to say probably not, depending on the temperment of the dog. Rottweilers being as large as they are, could probably pretty much destroy the crate just by getting a bit excited and moving around in it. That's just my opinion, but I think I might look for something a bit sturdier.

I have a rotty/lab mix who's very strong and heavy. It's all about how crate-trained the dog is. A chihuahua could claw through any soft crate given enough time if they really want to get out. This crate is well designed for travel, light and durable. But it's not for untrained dogs.

It works for any dog who is willing to stay in a crate. If your Rottweiler is calm and crate trained, it should be fine. Otherwise something stronger would be safer.

As long as your dog dosn't chew and you get the correct size it will work great.

Hello, Geat qreat question. Sorry I don't know the answer. The crate has worked for my very strong border collie lab terrier mix. Great quality, sturdy, easy to setup and take down. She could not chew through it. Her chew toys are wolf chew toys. she is a chewer. Hope this helps.

Yes, there is plenty of room for a big Rottie. We have one too, and she likes the crate. We have it on a concrete floor in our store warehouse and she can skitter it around, so we secured it with tie straps to secured shelving, and of course use a mat. When it is used outdoors there is no problem at all. In fact, we have put two of our large dogs in there at a time and there is room for both to lie down. The door is secure, but our Labradoodle can open it so we pin it shut too. None of the dogs have managed to go over the sides nor flip it over, even though the Labradoodle has tried.

Hi Jeff,Yes this crate will easily accommodate both dogs. Crates are not really intended to replace a pin or other enclosure where the dogs can have a bit of room to move about. The crate is intended more to be a place of safety for resting and does restrict movement to some degree. In class even larger dogs fit in the crate since they were used for periods of rest more so than confinement. With all of that said, your dogs will have some space to move about and space to stretch out and rest. I think you will be pleased with this crate as a portable option.

Mine was a petco brand crate. I took a risk and counted the number of metal rods on the door to see if they matched. They did and once I received, it was a perfect fit!

My crate is a "PetPorter" but also from wal-mart over 15 years ago. I bought a replacement door and it fits perfect. Just when you take the measurement, it will not be to the exact as the distributors. But it will be close. The little jut out things throw it off a little. I was very happy with the one I bought. Good luck.

If you will go to the Carlson website and check out the video and specifications for this 3 in 1 crate I believe it will help you decide if this is what you want. I love this product and there is nothing on the market like it.

If you really need a good suggestion I would like to know his/her age, weight, hight and length. My dog is a mixed breed with long body and long legs. I guess she is a in between sizes for the other manufactures' crates. They are either too small or too big. Some manufacture offer buying guide based on dog's weight. That didn't work for our tall and thin dog. Some older dogs can be less flexible that they need more room to turn around in it too. If your dog is still a puppy, get used ones until he stop growing. The rule of sum is the crate should be tall enought for him to stand and wide or long enough for her to turn around. I hope this will help you. Good luck!

This worked in the same size Petmate brand crate so I would assume it would.

I have two of these crates. My 120 lb mix and my 90lb GSD are each comfortable in theirs. Hope this helps.

Yes, I purchased the crate for my poodle/yorkie mix. He is 18 lbs and its the perfect size for him with his bed.

You would have to ask the manufacturer. I have had no trouble with the crate to date.

If they are good pals and will cuddle with each other, it should work. It might be a bit tight if they don't get along really well. It might be worth your while to purchase a larger crate if their co-habitation is long-term.

Calvin, did your Ridgeback fit into the crate? It seems like they would but I want to make sure before I order it. Thanks!

I would start at the petco web site, search for your model#. Then come back to amazon to search for a better price, once you know what you need. If it is the door make sure to measure correctly. My crate is not a petco, it is a petmate. Good luck

I had a 20 pound Blue Heeler puppy in there... Depending on how much running around your Rottweiler will do, and how you attempt to configure the crate, it may be slightly too small for him. As pictured, it should be enough space for him to turn around and lay out fully, but if you want this as an area he can run in, probably too small.

I had the same problem with an older crate. You will need to tell them whether your door is "old style" (flat across the top and bottom) or "new style" (straight on the sides and arced on the top and bottom). I called them (1 (877) 738-6283) and was directed to Karen Brevard. She was extremely helpful and very nice. Her e-mail is kbrevard@petmate.com. For one of mine, I needed to e-mail a picture to be sure to get the right size. I'm sure she will be able to tell you the correct door to order.
