dog crate for jack russel

downshifted

Any recommendations please for where to buy and what size to get. It's for her to have a safe place to be when we are in holiday accommodation

Many thanks

How long until you go away?

If she is not already crate trained it would be incredibly cruel to suddenly lock her in one, she needs to be trained gradually to spend more time in there and see it as a safe place otherwise it would be like somebody suddenly putting you in a confined room with no way to get out and no explanation of why you are there.

If you have several weeks/months to train her properly then go for the biggest size you can afford and have room for. I've had all of my crates from ebay, and always go for one with a metal base as I've seen dogs chew through the plastic ones.

It's for next year - fyi I am not a horribly cruel person!

I am looking for practical reccomendations on which one to buy please.
