This kennel must handle?

This kennel does not come with a top handle. It would be put together with slide snaps, no by screws or clips.

With supervision, I think it would be fine.Just want to be careful around the corners of the roof. It's perfect for traditional-sized Breyer models.

The tray is fine, it is at least even. Our dog east bothered by it, though we did put some blankets and towels to lay on. Its also worth noting that we went through 2 other kennels before this onem our dog could either pick the lock or chew the others open. Its very very sturdy.

I'd say 25-30 lbs. Not completely unwieldy based on the fact that the kennel is for large breed dogs.

Absolutely, yes. It's very well built and roomy. I have dogs and wouldn't hesitate to crate train them in this.

I returned this and have nothing positive to say for meeting my needs, which were different from yours. I also have large Labs (now nine months old), and got two of the Giant versions. The crates were very flimsy and I though they wouldn't keep the dogs in for 30 seconds, if that. The ones I was shipped would not be suitable for outside use. If you dog is small, it might work for inside. Good luck.

I would probably recommend a heavier one. For the price it's a good buy. My puppy will be around 100 pounds when he's done growing and I'll need a taller cage, its made well but pretty light may depend on how aggressive your dog is.

Should not be a problem unless it gets wet. Make sure your irrigation is turned off. Load your unit with some dry dog food.

It is very strong and would accommodate him - I'm assuming that it is for short times - no dog should be kept in one for extended periods.

I think the dog kennel is strong -however my Vizsla can turn it over when inside but mainly because it's light weight. The material is sturdy enough, and the metal frame is great and easy to use. I ordered a second one for the second dog too!

Hi Jim that kennel is awful. It came out of the box tangled and it would not even consider refunding money, even after sending several pictures of the mess. Buyer beware thanks

My Boston Terrier is 12 pounds - she did very well in the carrier, it was not stressed at all. It could handle probably another 5 pounds or so. I don't know if I would "stuff" an animal into it that was too much bigger, keeping the comfort of the animal in mind, but I believe the carrier is made well enough to accommodate that weight.

My dog is a beagle daschoung mix, about 32 or 33 lbs. It is ok for him for travleing. I dont use it for long term kenneling. He can stand up in it and move around. The crate is very good quality, easy to set up and take down. I am very pleased with my purchase.

I wouldn't call it flimsy. Adequate, not industrial strength like you might see for cages in an animal shelter. This is a lighter weight cage built for transporting, so it's not heavy gauge steel. If the dog in the cage isn't actively, desperately seeking escape, I'd think this would be fine. My shelter rescue basset reacted so much when I pulled this out of the box that I have never actually closed the cage door. Subsequent visit to the vet revealed bad teeth suspected to have been the result of chewing on the crate she was kept in while being used as a puppy mill. While my Basset was happy to have her own den, then my predatory pussy cat decided to take it over as her den! Makes a great cat crate - as long as I don't shut the door. Makes a wonderful dog crate, as long as the door is open, the Pupperonis are inside, and the cat is up on her cat-tree!

should - I have and had 2 - 80 lbs Dobermans in there with plenty of room. They are large type dogs. Only thing is that my Dobermans are wanting just 1 in it. Make sure you have it secured and not left unattended for extended periods of time. It is not a kennel like the cyclone types, so there are hard formed plastic parts that they can eventually get at and possibly chew. Have a clip/lock for extra security so they can't accidently open the manufacturer lock.

Yes, the kennel is great. BUT, check out DryFur (http://www.dryfur.com/) and make all the suggested changes. It DOES matter!(You can buy the hardware at your local hardware store or Home Depot.)

My 16 lb cocker spaniel can move it all around the laminate floor. It's great for the little pup we have but if I put the cocker in with her she moves it across the room and out of shape. I would think if she moved it into the right configuration, she could knock it over:)
