| How Big Should a Crate Be?
|  |
| A crate or wire kennel whether for travel or den training should be big enough for your dog to stand up on all fours turn around easily and lie down comfortably. If you plan to use the dog crate for travel you can go as large as you wish beyond the aforementioned guidelines. I hope that by using this size chart. It will give you a better understanding of the sizes of a dog crate
