Review: The perfect answer! - It's always difficult when trying to choose what will in essence be, not only a bed but a safe and non-intrusive crate for your dog. My requirements living in a small apartment was that it shouldn't be too bulky, but still be amply spacious for my puppy. I measured what I felt would be a suitable space in all dimensions, then made my search to find the one I felt would be most suitable. It had to be strong but not so heavily constructed that it would make it difficult to move if needed. It also had to be simple and quick to put together. I have been more than impressed and delighted in this particular crate and it exceeded my expectations. It arrived very quickly to me here in Portugal and was well packed. Putting up the crate was as simple as pulling up the integrated handle and just fastening the sides! Cleaning the crate is quick and easy as it has ample headroom even for a small human adult to crawl inside too! It's very sturdy, airy and my puppy couldn't wait to get inside. I can lift it to where I want it to go, and because it has 2 doors (with effective bolts to lock), I can turn it with either the door on the long side or the shorter side. It has proved to be a brilliant purchase and the price is exceptionally reasonable. I can't even think of any negatives about this product and can highly recommend it. My only advice if you're buying a crate for the first time is to properly measure the space where you Intend to place it. Don't forget to measure the height too as if it's for a puppy, they will obviously grow and it makes sense to aim to get a crate that they will still be able to use when fully grown. I have a Maltese Bichon puppy and she will be able to comfortably use it for many years. Obviously, if you have a puppy for a larger breed you need to bear in mind that they won't fit into it when fully grown, it you still have to allow for their growing process they will quickly outgrow the crate! Sounds obvious, but it's still worth mentioning.
Review: Perfect for transporting three 9-week old piglets 200 miles on a Bank Holiday Monday!! - I actually bought this to bring three 9 week-piglets from near Skegness to Northumberland on Bank Holiday Monday, so a 200 mile/5 hour trip has got to be a good baptism!! I looked at cages in the pet shops and stores, and went for this one because it was a bit heavier [which suggested it would be a bit stronger] and it had also a metal tray instead of the more usual plastic tray. The cage was very easily to assemble and I put plenty of hay in and also packed the outside so it wouldn't move about in the car, and the piglets slept most of the way. The piglets were a bit shy at first, so we lifted the cage out of the car and carried it with them in and there was no buckling at all even though they must have weighed something like 40 kilo or so. The two doors proved to be a real bonus. I checked the piglets regularly and would have been much happier opening just the end door if I had needed to, but they were well settled. And they were a bit shy at first and needed coaxing to come out, and the two doors made it much easier to do this, rather that having to stretch into the cage and push an arm towards them. The cage needed to be cleaned and disinfected after use [but the pigs were really very clean and good travellers], which was no problem at all. This proved perfect for transporting the pigs, and I think it would be suitable for a good medium sized dog as well. My only note of caution is that if you are looking to transport a bigger dog and looking at a bigger cage, do make sure that it fill fit in your car, because the height of this cage was perfect for what I wanted but it was quite a tight fit getting it in to the car. I paid £36.15 from desertcart and it arrived next day, because I find desertcart Prime and next day delivery is worth it for me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: i am getting a golden retriever pup but want the cage to last when she is bigger. do i get a 42 inch or a 36 inch**
A: I'd definitely go for the 42". We have an 11 month old sprocker and she has plenty of room to stand up and move around. She spends a lot of time in her cage when we are at work and she is really happy in there. We have a 36" for the car, it's big enough for travelling but I wouldn't leave her in there for any length of time during the day. Hope this helps.

**Q: what size cage would you recommend for a male Rough Collie?**
A: They only need enough room for standing and turning at fully grown. If you have a puppy and only want to buy one crate,you can pad it out with a few boxes so that they have a small nest area. It is best not to let them toilet in the crate so let it out often . Research how big your dog is likely to get.   Hope this helps as I bought a crate that is way too big for my dog at adult size.

**Q: Is this suitable for an adult Jack Russell?**
A: I agree with the previous three comments, this is quite a large cage with plenty of room for a Jack Russell terrier and his bedding.  Our only complaint is the bolts on the doors do not line up very well making it difficult to close the doors securely.  Make sure these fit OK when you take delivery.

**Q: Is it big enough to fit my boyfriend in?**
A: Haha you could give it a try

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good crate but some small design changes would make it perfect
*by D***Y on 27 March 2014*

The crate is robust with a matt silver finish which will not chip, and it comes with a lipped tray. Fairly easy to fold out into a crate shape. We found a few issues which need to be addressed by Ellie-Bo. 1. A separator panel should be included. This will allow users to separate off a smaller area for a small puppy and then enlarge it as the puppy grows, saving the need to buy a new crate and spend even more money. We bought this crate and used some firm wire and cable ties to make a smaller partition. If you do this take great care to make the edges of the wire safe for the puppy, We used a heavy duty tape to fold over the edge of the partition wire. 2. The doors do not open fully back and so stick out into the room/corridor, which could be a nuisance 3. There should be an option for left or right side hinging on both doors, or the doors should be removable, (or the crate should be usable upside down; more details in next section). We placed our crate in our utility, and found the 'sticking out' doors a real inconvenience in our particular positioning. As the crate is left open all day for the puppy to go inside as he pleases, the doors were continually in the way. So, we decided to turn the crate upside down, which reversed the hinging of the doors, which was perfect for our setup. We manoeuvered the tray round to the other side, (it needed a little final persuasion as it was a tight fit), and felt really pleased with ourselves. However, later in the day we noticed our puppy standing on his hind legs with his head protruding through the holes in the top of the crate. It was then that we realised that the 'official' bottom of the crate, (which has the tray standing on it), had much larger gaps (4 inch x 4 inch). So we ended up attaching some more wire over the holes, so that our puppy didn't hurt himself. Overall, what a palava. This crate is very good quality and has the potential to give it's users the scope for integrating it perfectly into their household. I hope Ellie-Bo come across this review and find the proposals worth considering. At a future date when our puppy is no longer a puppy, we will need to get the 'large' crate, and it would be great to see these issues resolved. If they are, we'll be buying their grate without reservation. If they don't, we'll look around at other crates before making our final decision. In the meantime, we hope potential purchasers find our experience useful.
