SportPet Airline Compliant LARGE 31.5" Travel Dog Kennel-Durable Plastic Airline Pet Carrier w/ Removable Wheels & Food Bowls, Collapsible Indoor/Outdoor Dog Kennel, Dogs up to 28"L & 20"H-Cream/Gray

As an animal rescuer for more than 20 years I’ve bought a LOT of crates of all kinds for both airline and vehicle transport use as well as in the home. When I downsized to a MINI for road transport it became very difficult to get my other airline crates in my vehicle; I needed one that was 23” high or less so it didn’t have to be assembled inside the vehicle and that had a secure way to attach the clamshell halves that was easier on the fingers and preferably the wire ventilation because dogs can chew through the hole-in-the-plastic kind. THIS kennel fit all the criteria perfectly and even had extra bonus items. The sides have easy-snap latches that can be locked PLUS holes for the wing nut bolts or zip ties for extra security. The latches alone are fine for my car transport use and make it easy to break down to nest in itself afterward. The wire ventilation windows are sturdier and safer. This model has detachable wheels AND a handle at both ends so it’s easy to maneuver for storage or along the airport concourse to inspection. The wheels can pop off with the push of a tab, no tools needed, or be secured with screws if that’s going to best suit how you’ll use it. This is one of the very best quality crates I’ve ever bought and also includes two small bowls and “LIVE ANIMAL” stickers and checklist for airline use. Even better was that it was available for $80 as a new-used item (box had minor damage, product was perfect). Thank you to the seller for such a great product that helps save lives and to Amazon for making it half the cost what this would be locally so I have more money for vet bills. Excellent value!

Great kennel! Several things I thought to share: - Easy to put together, slightly misalligned in one corner, but doesn’t make a difference as it’s still secure. - It rolls very easily. The only thing that they might try to improve on is brakes on all four wheels rather than just the front ones. - The wheels are easy to remove and put on. However, it’s a bit difficult to put the wheels back on if your dog is inside (like mine was). He’s only 20lbs or so and I got the large because he’s a slightly long boy. But it’s a bit difficult when you have noodle arms and no one to help. - It comes with two plastic but sturdy dishes. A bit on the smaller end for a larger furrbaby, but if they’re flying, it’s good enough. Might be a bit difficult for flat-nosed furrbabies though. - The handles on top are a great addition. You can use it to roll the kennel around, making it virtually weightless in the airport. I used a leash and looped it around the handle for easier pulling with my stubby noodle arms. But if you’re lifting it, it’s a bit bulky but light enough for me (remember, noodle arms and arm span of almost nothing - AKA 5’2” at 115lbs). - The inside is spacious, and has grooves on the bottom around the kennel, incase they go have an accident. I’d recommend a peepad and an absorbant (or waterproof, depending on your preference. I chose absorbant so it can dry and he’s not sitting in his accident for several hours.) blanket. Most airlines say small blanket, but I was able to get away with a pretty big one because it’s dips down a bit when your furbaby goes into the kennel. All-in-all, a great product if you have to send your baby via cargo, and they won’t allow you to take them into the plane. Highly recommend for the price point.

My 90-pound European Doberman loves this crate! He can stand up in it (ears not cropped) and it is plenty big for him to lay down comfortably. I purchased a pad for him too. This kennel comes with all metal fasteners, clips for initial attaching, zip tie holes, food and water bowls, wheels, handles, stickers for labeling, a checklist, and a requirements listing. I purchased two--one to use in the house and one for traveling. I was a Petmate Vari Kennel fan but have experienced problems with the doors, had plastic fasteners with no clips, and did not have zip tie holes. It also did not have handles nor provision for wheels. The Petmate also required that the food bowls and stickers be purchased separately. Amazon did an excellent job of delivering in their box truck (not the typical delivery vehicle). Both crates arrived undamaged and will all of the parts. Perfect.

Can’t understand why this is a frequently returned item. Maybe because it’s larger than what people think? I have a 24 pound big cat and have been traveling with him in a medium size metal crate. Crate is too big and I think he would prefer something smaller so he feels safer because he hates to travel. We’re typically in the car no more than 2.5-3.5 hours. Have looked at a number of pet carriers because he’s so big that most the small crates are too small, he would destroy a soft crate and the larger crates are too big. Found this one and it was purrfect. He can stand up and he can turn around because he’s a cat, even though he’s morbidly obese he’s amazingly bendy and squashy. He also didn’t allow me to put it together before he claimed it. I had to assemble it with him in it and assembly was very easy, great design. Excellent sturdy construction, we do not plan on traveling in a plane so I can’t speak for that, the “certificate” it came with saying it was plane compliant was dated 2013. Things may have changed since then but there’s no way an animal is getting out of this without assistance. If you’re planning to travel on a plane, just try to make sure there will be no loose monkeys because they could definitely figure out how to open the door. We will be taking a trip fairly soon and I hope that he is happier in this than he was in the metal crate. Of course he wouldn’t cooperate to get a side-by-side picture and he looks too big in the video where he’s standing on top, but the crate accommodates him beautifully. Well ventilated, but won’t allow him to stick his fat paw through to claw shred my car, cool water/food dishes and stickers to stick all over it letting everyone know it contains a LIVE ANIMAL. Could also be used for a raccoon as long as his hands were not too tiny, so as not to reach them through the door to open it from the outside.

Absolute game-changer for traveling with my German Shepperd. It’s incredibly sturdy and well-built, with thick plastic walls and a strong wire door that feels secure and reliable. My dog immediately felt comfortable inside because the crate is very spacious, giving him plenty of room to stand, turn around, and lie down without feeling cramped. Used it for airplane travel One of the best features is the smooth-rolling wheels, which make moving the crate effortless—even when you’ve got a 80+ lb dog inside. The wheels snap on and off easily, which is perfect for airport travel. Assembly was surprisingly simple, and the crate meets airline requirements, giving me peace of mind for flights. Update: Wheels started to come out, I had to glue them.

Easy to put together, great size for a large breed puppy. Love the wheels and handles making it easy to transport the kennel.

This is a very good crate. Easy to put together. Looks nice and is perfect for my pup

I have a 12-year-old domestic longhair cat that at one point was 24 lbs. A lot of people who see him mistake him for a Maine Coon. I have a normal-sized pet carrier that I've been putting him in, and he doesn't have room to do anything. That's because a foldable canvas one I WAS using, was torn up by a stray I had to house in it briefly, and then 2 more kittens eventually tore it up more so they could squeeze through and escape. I met a woman the last time I was at the vet, who had a nice carrier for her cat. It was about the size of the canvas carrier I previously used. She couldn't remember where she got it, though. So, I went searching on Amazon after measuring the current carrier and the canvas carrier, to find something that would work. I came across this, and just put it together this morning. It was insanely easy to assemble. I appreciated that. I am thoroughly impressed with it. It is very sturdy. I would say it's good for pets that are about the size of a Maine Coon, or a Corgi. Lots of room. They also sell a pet bed that fits in it nicely, which I purchased. The best part is that the carrier has wheels that can snap in and out easily while being completely locked into place. So, you can use wheels on it, or not. I highly recommend this carrier, especially if you're traveling... the wheels would make that a breeze (but could also be an issue with rolling around an airplane, or vehicle if not strapped into place).

Good quality durable worth money

Excelente calidad, es gruesa y resistente. Tiene el tamaño adecuado según las medidas ofrecidas como referencia. Viene con todo lo que se menciona incluyendo los stickers y el certificado para poder viajar en avión. Muy recomendado

Excelente calidad, no había visto este tipo de kennel con llantas que se quitan y ponen, tan bien reforzado. Pronto lo pondré a prueba en un viaje largo, actualizaré mi reseña de acuerdo a que tal nos vaya.

The brand new kennel arrived in tact , as advertised , all parts included, metal screws , ' live animal ' stickers for all sides as well as an ITIA certificate from the manufacturer stating approved essentials for flying. Medium kennel, perfect for my 63cm long Maltese. Plenty of space inside for standing and turning. Very happy after a long search between different kennels, manufacturers and hundreds of reviews. Just a note: I am not using the bowls supplied for the flight, even though perfect for cage , but ordered a ball mechanism container, refillable from outside . No mess.

Necesito dos más , pero no hay en existencia , favor de contactarme
