Dog Crates (merged)

orlao

Have you tried Pets at Home, local pet shop or Argos, I know you can reserve stuff there, maybe pick up on your way to collect the puppy in one of the bigger stores?

Also if you have a CWG nearby they always seem to hold loads of stock and I know they used to do dogcrates!

The other thing is to check small ads in local papers, local internet sites and pick up on ebay, only thing is disinfect a 2nd hand crate really well.......

What kind of puppy is it? Obviously going to be a big dog:rotfl:

Tried those you mentioned...no sloping ones only square ones.

We were offered a second hand sloping one yesterday, from a friend of a friend who was selling theirs, but our soon to be new vet advised caution as it had been used by 2 dogs previously and with the new pup not having had his jags yet, there was cause for concern about nasties lurking no matter how well we cleaned it. Perhaps only a very slight risk but after reading about poor Lola on another thread here, we didn't want to take the chance.

So, we ended up buying a smaller square one which will have to do for bringing the pup home in. The pet shop reckoned it would do until he was about 6 months so I'd better make sure I take him out in the car regularly to make sure I get my money's worth.

He's a labrador btw.

Believe it or not, i spotted one on Amazon yesterday . Sorry dont have the link , but if you go to the pet section and look through you should find it .

Plenty of scope for selling on the crate on ebay after the pup's outgrown it, I'd reckon...

I'm sure you'll have loads of fun with the pup - our lab pup is 9 months now, and still a joy!

I urgently need a Jack Russell size dog crate in the Bromely area if anyone knows of somewhere? I need it desperately preferably tomorrow. My rescue centre who i foster for has none spare, they are trying to get hold of one for me but i need it pronto.

Have you tried freecycle, even a request to borrow one might help.

A quick google came up with these guys.

I don't know how much a dog crate should cost but it said the prices include 48 hours postage & delivery or pay an extra fiver for 24 hour delivery.

HTH and I hope you get your problem sorted.
