We like this dog crate for lots of reasons. It's sturdy. Look at the picture on the right, that's about 250 pounds on that crate! The door secures with 5 "catches" plus the unique slider latch. You can see the door in action if you'd like. The unique way this crate folds in on itself is very clever. It's ideal for places where you have minimum room to set up. Another feature we like is the unique pan release mechanism. The black plastic pan stays put which will make it nearly impossible for your dog to slide the pan out. Each end of the crate secures with a 5 point system that will keep your dog safe and secure. This crate comes in a Chrome Plated wire. Due to manufacturing variances, the sizes listed are not exact. We don't recommend purchasing one of these crates if the space it must fit has less than an inch of tolerance all the way around.

This really depends on how you plan to use your crate. If you are planning to move your crate often, then the smaller the better.
Start by getting a tape measure. If you don't have one, use a piece of string and a ruler. Use the string for the measurements and then use a ruler to measure your starting and ending points on the string.
First measure your dog from the floor to the top of the shoulders. Now add two or three inches. That is the shortest crate you should consider.
Now measure from the tip of the nose to the back of legs. Add two or three inches and you'll have a good idea of the smallest crate you can use.
If you want to use your crate mostly as a kennel for your dog, get one with plenty of room to lay down or move about. Measure from the top of the head to the floor and from the tip of the nose to the back-end. Now add as much space on top and behind as you'd like so your dog will have room to comfortably move about and sleep.
If you can't measure your dog, then use this table for a general idea. But remember, a dog's weight isn't necessarily a good indication of their body size. Measuring is the best way to determine crate size.
