My dog has severe separation anxiety and needed to be crated. However, she was very scared of the traditional front entry crates and managed to break several of them. We bought this version of the crate in the less durable plastic but found it to be a little too cheap and flimsy for her. So we returned it and ordered this one from Meijer. It has been the best crate we've ever had. She finds the "garage" style door much less threatening and now actually loves her crate. We leave the door open when we are home and she often will go in it just to sleep. This a great crate for those dogs that are intimidated by a front entry. I would recommend keeping the top covered by the cardboard that comes in the shipping or a blanket though if your dog does have some separation anxiety issues; it keeps the crate more "den" like.

I bought this crate for the small space at the end of my bed. Originally I had a crate with an end door but it was a squeeze for my dogs to get in. This crate is more attractive than the usual crates and my dogs went into it straight away. The only con is that the garage style door closes very noisily and one of my dogs, who is rather nervous, tries to escape before the door is shut. Not sure it would make such a great crate for training especially if you had a nervous dog or a dog who had been at a shelter and was a bit jumpy.

Honestly, it has been the best dog crate that I have ever had. It seems to fit any size, any age, and disability that a dog could have. I love how easy it is to set up and fold down for storage. The large opening is so nice for the larger dogs to get into it. The crate is made very strong and is easy to move around with the wheels on it. But the very best thing is that my dogs loves to go into it and sometimes does not want to leave it. If you are looking for a crate and have been discouraged in the past from all the other crates you have bought that just did not hold up, this one is the one to get! I know, I have bought just about all the styles out there and this one fits our needs and more. I highly recommend it to everyone.

The best feature of this dog crate is the garage-style door. it opens up and recesses in the top of the crate so that it doesn't hang out in the open to injury your leg as you go by. Also, the top door is very nice if you just want to reach in and pet your pup without opening the side door. I researched a lot of dog crates before settling on this one, and i am so glad that I got this one. It is sturdy, safe, and nice looking, not to mention the great thicker molded bottom that keeps the puppy warmer than the plastic or metal bottom cages do. It is truly worth the extra money to get this crate. You won't be sorry that you bought it.

I bought two of these (large) for my dogs to relax in at home. Very easy to assemble and easy to move. Even the dogs that don't like crates aren't threatened by these as the door slides up like a garage door leaving a huge opening for them to feel secure yet free. I'm involved in animal rescue and these are awesome! I plan to buy more.

I have two German Shepherds and have never used a crate before--and never thought I would. One dog has separation anxiety, and I bought the crates to help her relax while we are at work. Had to buy the other dog hers too. I just put their beds in each crate with toys and chews, and they seem happy to go in. During the day, I keep each crate door open, and they go in and out as they please. The wheels will make it easy to transport to car and hotel rooms. Very pleased with them.

We do appreciate the quality, particularly that of the base as our other crates have proven cheap and easily broken. I did not realize the the primary door was on the side and opens like a garage door (up and over the top) This is not user friendly when the pet doesn't want ot go in. The second door is on the top which is cool for treats etc.
