How large are the oval vent holes in this kennel? My dog tries to push his nose through any holes and can hurt himself.

This is a wonderful crate we had a smaller one for our labrador retriever and since he was growing he now has the 40' in the house and the car. He really likes it holes are to small for a nose to get stuck.

No small holes but the latches on the front and top are a joke. If your dog is determined they will pop the latches with no problem. We have to chain and padlock the front and top and so far this has kept our escape artist in place.

14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone. I use it for preventing my weimaraner from biting his rear feet. The 12" did not work for that, as he could "bend" into it due to the long snout. This XXL prevents him from reaching the hind paws and I believe it would be difficult for him to reach his front paws. It is awkwardly big in some ways due to his slight build, but it still allows him to lay around comfortably even in his kennel. Does he love it? No, but he likes it better than one of the old style plastic cones and at least he does not try to get out of it. 14" from where the collar attaches to the cone to the end of the cone.

I have a Vari Kennel, not a Petco but I believe they are similar. The only advice I can offer is that the dimensions of the door given by the seller were quite accurate, as was the photograph. It is not a rectangular door.

I'm sorry to get back to you so late. never saw this email. This tent is cute but very small. perhaps suitable for a ferret or tiny dog. Was too small for my Miniature Pinscher. Hope this helped you.

It has a large knockout for an oval duct; I had to use tin-snips to cut out a round hole to go straight up. There is no way to vent backward into the wall

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.

The slates are approx. 2×10. I don't see any escape holes in the bottom. We have a dutch Shepard that is not able to escape the cage portion but has figured out how to open the lock. So we just reinforced it and so far no problems. Hope this answers your question.

Wow! No idea! I would contact the company, as it suggested that it will last for years. Is there any chance there's a hole or rip in it? Maybe that let air in, but I'm just guessing. I still have the one I purchased, but my dog was only able to use it for a few weeks before she passed. I wish you all the best solving this issue! :)

The entry and exit holes are adjustable....but we use just the regular size kibble we buy at Costco. Our Great Pyrenees pup just loves this and it does keep him busy for awhile.

The sides are stiff and won't cave in but there is no ventilation on top and the side panels are not enough. My 4 lb puppy got very hot in a 45 minute trip. I returned mine.

My dog also has the same issue. So far I've had no problems with him making any holes. I've washed it several times and its held up perfectly! I am very please with purchasing this bed. I have paid twice as much for other beds that haven't lasted even close to as long as this bed has. The matress itself has lost a bit of its origional shape but its nothing to fret about. The cover is removable/washable and my dog loves it! All in all I highly recommend this bed and give it two thumbs up! For the price you can't beat it!

Thank you for your interest in this item. The entire top/lid is made of 1/2" x 1/2" wire. There are no ventilation problems for the animal.

The Noz2Noz has four vents, front, back and side. The top can be zipped open, but a big dog will get out. It will also figure out how to get out if it can find a partially opened zipper. If you want total security buy a steel cage. My big dog loves her soft crate.

If it is a dwarf breed I'd be concerned about the head getting stuck. The actual spacing of the wires in each pane I believe it is 2"x3", but the spacing of each panel itself is about 1" on the side where they attach and about the same on the bottom. I have it in the storage cubby of the RV so not easy access right now. Now what you could do is get chicken wire and put it on the inside of the kennel just about a foot or so high. That is what I would do as I have show rabbits and would do the same thing

I got a small one for my 13 week old min pin.he fits in fine (perfect fit), but that was a week ago and he's grown fast. I left it at my mom's house so haven't put him in for a week, but think you'll be better off w/ a Med b/c Shih Tzu's have lot of fur? Plus my dog weighs less than 10 lbs still

I think you may want to get a more sturdy crate. I have a 20 lb dog so he is small and has lots of room. A 49 lb dog may be able to escape this one, especially if the dog is in the crate for an extended time.
