A dog crate is used for many different purposes. It should never be thought of as a cage but as a comfortable place where a pet will not be disturbed and can just relax and sleep when it wants to. The luxury dog crates available today are engineered to offer this comfort but are also attractive enough to fit in with the decor of a home.
A crate can be used for training, short term confinement when transporting a pet or as a safe place for a pet inside the home. When used as a training aid, it can help to toilet train puppies or to teach them to be alone. A pet can be transported in one to a competition or to the vet. It provides a comfortable, safe place inside the home where a pet can retreat without fear of disturbance.
When it comes to purchasing a crate, it is important to consider the dimensions. If buying one from an online store, these dimensions are clearly stated in the product description. It is no use purchasing one and then finding that it is too small. The pet must feel comfortable when lying down and stretching, sitting or standing. It should also be able to turn around without difficulty or it may feel too confined.
Materials such as wood, wicker, steel and tightly woven mesh fabric can all be used to construct these items. It does not matter what material is used as long as it is durable and safe for the pet with enough air flow. It should also be simple to keep clean, preferably with a tough, removable pan.
Some of the items being created today are designed with a dual function. They not only provide a safe space for a pet but are beautifully constructed of wood and can be used as furniture too. One can be used as a nightstand, for example, providing a great way of keeping a pup close at night. Some are made to be used as end tables in a living room. This provides a stylish option and allows pets to be in the house without taking up extra space.
Many different designs are available. Some people prefer to have a design that offers good visibility so the pet can see what is going on around them. Such visibility is offered in a design with a solid top that doubles as a table top but with mesh sides. Wooden slats are another option. There are even very contemporary steel designs with a solid top that functions as a table top. The arrangement of doors has to allow the owner maximum convenience. An option to open the crate at the side or in front means that it can fit unobtrusively into a corner.
Some owners want a crate specifically for transportation. One with pull handles and wheels is perfect for this. It is possible to get those that are made of mesh fabric that are light in weight and easy to assemble and fold down. They can even be washed on a gentle cycle in a washing machine and hung on the line to dry.
Pets can now enjoy being part of the household without the owners having to sacrifice their sense of style in any way. They may have to pay more for items that are not mass produced but they often consider this well worth the extra expense. The pet can now be part of the household and have its own special place without causing any inconvenience.
