I have a 115 lb olde engllish bulldog. What size crate would be optimal for his size?

This size should be fine. I'd judge more by his length than weight. Our Golden is long with long legs & this size gives her room she needs to stretch out. Nothing less than 48x30 will give her space to move comfortablely. Very heavy & sturdy crate. Love the pewter. More appealing/ less obtrusive in room than black.

Even though he is heavy, I think 48x30 should be fine. Our Golden can stretch out in that size & she is long. I'd go more by his length than weight. Great crate!

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

It depends on how big your dog is expected to be at full size. I have a 65-pound pit bull, and the 36" fit perfectly. A nice included feature is the adjustable divider, which allows the size of the crate to be adjusted as the puppy grows.

The crates size when assembled is 54H x 46L x 35W. I"m not sure of the wire guage. It seems to be about the same as the Midwest 48". When set up, it seems to be a little bit wobbly. If your dog is relatively calm it shouldn't pose a problem. I carry mine to shows, trials, etc. There are a lot of dogs around, so I take the extra precaution of using zip-ties. I found some ties that were re-usable to you don't need to worry about finding cutters to take the crate down. It does have three doors, so that makes it easier to find a pace to set up the giant crate. The crate is probably fine without the ties, but it makes me feel better. It also happens to be the only collapsing crate of it's size. I've owned and bred Danes for almost 30 years. This is the only one I have ever seen. Sorry to be so long winded, but, I just can't help it. Good Luck.

Dear Purple Frog(?): I would contact Precision directly before ordering, as they have a range of sizes. The crate we bought is one of the smaller ones, as we have 5-7 pound Chihuahuas. What I can confirm is that these crates are really sturdy, and have a double-latch door arrangement which is better than the iCrate/Midwest crate we ordered later, in error, though it is adequate for chihuahuas. The toll-free number on the Precision crate is: 800-397-3167. I am sure they can advise on the best size crate for your pooch. Many thanks for asking. Morgan Phenix

We use it for our boxer. We bought it when he was a 35 pound puppy and we still use it at 13 months and 70 pounds. This is a great crate.

I would recommend a crate about 20" high. This website has a helpful guide: /www.dogcratesbeds.com/dog-crate-sizes/ Generally, the dog needs room to stand up, turn around and lay back down. Don't make it too big if the dog isn't fully potty trained or one end will be used for waste.

It is like a mini-room for my 60 pd. puppy. The lock is secure yet simple to operate. Well ventilated with windows on all sides and tall enough for my dog to stand comfortably. I would not hesitate to recommend it. (Have not used it for airline travel-only as a home kennel) Update: My dog is now 88 pounds (german shepherd/border collie) and extremely muscular. He has not defeated the latch system. Plenty of room for him to stand and move within the crate. Fourteen months old and Kennel looks and functions just as it did on day one. I am purchasing a second one for my golden retriever puppy.

It depends on the purpouse of the crate. I have a Pomeranian, who is anout 5-6lbs. He fits perfectly.

Get the extra large. I bought large for my 55 pound Weimaraner and returned it because it wasn't long enough (she is tall and slender). I crate her while I am at work and wanted her to have plenty of space. She destroyed 2 wire crates before I got her this one which has lasted.

We have a 65 lb lab and we have the larger 42" crate. We originally bought the smaller one but it was too small.

My dog is 23 lbs, pug/pek mix- his crate is 24x36, which gives him plenty of room. I'm not sure you should go smaller, tho you can try out sizes at WAl-Mart or PetSmart and decide which to order

Yes. I have a 55lb mixed breed and he does fine in this. Crates should not be too roomy, especially when traveling. Too much space makes them insecure, and uncomfortable with changes in motion. For crate training a dog is fine if he has to duck his head a little. Measure for height from the shoulders.

Your best bet is to measure your dog - a yardstick would work since it is the length of this crate. A crated dog should have enough room to turn around.If your dog is regular dobie size, you may need a larger crate.

It depends on how tall he is and how much he weighs. My Maltipoo is 5 lbs and about10 inches tall and she loves her crate.

The crate is huge. My Otterhound boys are ~115lbs and the crate is comfortable for them. Your Lab will have some wiggle room ;)

I bought a crate a little larger then I probably needed but I'd rather have it then have it be too small. It really depends on how big your animal is, and should still be enough for it to stand up and turn around comfortably in.
