Dog Crates, Gates & Pens
When it comes to crating their pets, new dog owners become fearful. They find it cruel to purchase a crate for dogs. However, buying dog crates can have a better effect on your dog as it may give them a sense of security like their ancestors had dens in the wild.
Crate usage is especially useful during potty training. Dogs often dislike using the bathroom in their crates. Making them use one allows them to learn when is the correct time to go potty. Using a crate as a training method can be used to prevent destructive behavior with positive reinforcement.
Types of Dog Crates
Now that you know how important it is to crate-train your dog, let’s look at some dog crates. If you are looking for something that you can use both indoors and out, soft folding dog crates are the best options. They offer the best of both worlds with their metal frames for even more protection than a standard dog carrier.
Such carriers are also larger than a standard dog carrier which leaves more room for larger dogs. They serve as a great option for dog crate for German Shepherd. If you think that your dog needs more room when traveling, a dog crate comes in handier.
Wired Pet Crates
If you are looking for a large option, then wired dog crates are more stable than soft folding crates. Wire crates can be used inside the home and outside as well. While you can travel with them since they can collapse, there are easier alternatives to use when traveling. If you are looking for a more visually appealing crate, wood dog crates blend in seamlessly with your existing furniture in your home.
When your dog needs extra room, expandable dog crates are a great option. These crates give double the room when needed. They can be used when taking your dog to the beach or when they need a break from the hot sand. If you have small pets, some expandable crates can fit multiple dogs too without making them feel cramped. These crates are also lined with a reversible cushion that covers the entire surface area.
To keep your dog out of a room, travel dog gates are a great way to section them off without leaving them in a crate for long periods. Some dog gates are collapsible, making it easier to store vs the other alternatives. Some other dog gates offer an additional doggy door for your pet to enter and exit from.
Dog Gates
When choosing a dog gate, look for the ones with rubberized grips to keep the gate in place. It also helps your walls from being damaged. If you have an anxious dog, having a mesh gate is a better alternative than a completely closed-off one.
Like dog gates, dog fence systems are used to keep your dog contained while giving them an open space to play. They are made for independent dogs who want to play outside without a gated fence. These fences keep your dogs within the invisible barrier when the pet’s receiver is getting out of range or too close to the underground barrier. The fences are great when you want to have an open backyard, yet you can keep your dog from wandering too far from your home.
Automatic Dog Doors
Dog doors are perfect for dogs and cats who can take care of themselves. With the help of an automatic door, you don’t even need to be around to let your pets in and out of the house. These pet doors are meant to keep out the rain and snow. They let your dog enter and leave when they please. While you may think that other animals might be able to slip through with an automatic dog door, a paired dog collar sends a signal when to open and close the door.
Playpens for Dogs
Consider giving your dog more room without sacrificing too much space. Dog playpens are a great in-between option for dog gates and crates. Pet Playpens give your dog more room than a traditional crate without the added expense of electric dog fences. These playpens are perfect when you are hosting a party or social gathering and your dog needs more room than his usual crate.
The playpens are ideal when your dog needs more space and can be used for both indoor and outdoor use. If you have a dog escape artist, the dog playpens come with a mesh cover preventing your dog from escaping and offer a complete surrounded exterior view for complete visibility. They have mesh zippered entrances and sided pouches for added belongings. Our travel playpens zip and fold in seconds and include a carrying case making it perfect for pet travel no matter where you're headed.
Kennels For Dogs
Life-long travelers looking for more portable options might want to consider looking into purchasing harder shelled dog kennels. Unlike Soft-Sided crates, kennels are typically the ideal options made widely available. They provide complete protection when traveling and also give plenty of ventilation since they're hard-bodied and more durable.
Kennels are also more universal and are also a fantastic option for Cats, Kittens, and Small Animals. They are perfect for taking to the vet. Kennels are more of a hybrid between Dog Carriers and Crates as they're more durable than pet carriers. However, they are smaller in size than say a collapsible crate.
Multi-Functional Options
In most cases looking for the right containment, an item is more about aligning yourself with the needs you're looking for. It's important to first analyze the usefulness, functionality, and consumption of space. In most cases, pet owners might elect to purchase multiple containment products that are meant to serve multiple purposes.
An example of having multiple options might include the need to have something that is less stationary and lightweight for traveling to the veterinarian. It makes more sense than using something larger in size even though it collapses and folds. Another example might include the need to have a temporary establishment in your homes such as a collapsible dog house, or a Pet Tent that's not to be confused with a Pet Crate. They are more designed for outdoor areas such as picnics and hikes that aren’t designed for transporting your dog to the vet.
Many types of containment items also have different types of folding mechanisms to make it easier to transport your pet around. For example, a Pet Tent might be framed like a Wired Crate, however, a tent is more designed to 'Pop' open or fold in a completely different manner. The feature makes it completely distinguishable from a crate. There are also crates out there that are portable with metal folding mechanisms. They are sturdy and meant for brief outdoor periods that might also be great for picnics such as those that are wired. However, they're sturdier and heavier in weight and provide users with the universal option of having it become a more permanent establishment inside their home or a place they can familiarize themselves with.
Use such a device in areas outside of their home, whereas wired dog crates are more designed as temporary establishments in your home. Wired ones work great in outdoor settings as they're lightweight and easier to travel with. They offer further convenience to take apart by zipping and folding on both sides that then fold. Such mechanisms found in Wired crates have always existed since the 1980s and 1990s as an easy way for dog and cat owners to travel. Such exact mechanisms have always existed in pet carriers.
For many years, crates were always essential for dog owners, and for many years they've always contained mesh windows that roll up. A lot of them have velcro into place with zippered mesh entrances and doors that are essential in providing adequate ventilation. They have useful visibility with zippered sunroofs and come in a variety of features and functions.

Selecting A Dog Crate Online
