The complete guide
Choosing an outdoor wire kennel
What this kennel is
This is a large outdoor wire crate kennel, sold as a heavy duty dog cage. It gives your dog a secure play area outside, with a swing-open door for easy in and out access. It comes in one size.
Size and which dogs it suits
- Length: 101.6 inches
- Width: 48 inches
- Height: 72.1 inches
- Recommended for small, medium and large breeds, from 13 to 110+ lbs
That is a big footprint, so measure the spot where the kennel will stand before you order. Measurements can vary slightly from the figures listed, so leave yourself a little extra room on each side.
The weight range is wide. A 13 lb dog and a 110 lb dog both fall inside it. If your dog is at the top end of that range, compare the footprint with your dog's size before you decide.
What it is made of
The kennel is made of durable materials, including metal wire. The listing says this is for safety, optimal stability and long-lasting strength. It also says the kennel sets up easily.
The Weatherguard cover
An outdoor kennel needs a plan for bad weather. This one has a Weatherguard cover that gives waterproof protection. It keeps your dog protected from snow, wind, rain and other outdoor elements.
A quick checklist before you order
- Measure the length and width of your space against 101.6 by 48 inches.
- Check the headroom above the spot against 72.1 inches, especially under a patio roof, a carport or an awning.
- Check your dog sits inside the recommended range of 13 to 110+ lbs.
- Think about the path to the door, since it swings open.
What the listing does not tell you
A few details are not on the listing. It does not give the kennel's weight, it does not say whether the kennel has a floor, and it does not say how the door fastens. If any of those matter for your setup, contact us before you order and we will check for you.
Delivery
Delivery is free on orders of $60 or more. Orders under $60 have a flat $22 delivery charge. Allow 24 to 48 hours for us to handle and process your order, then 5 to 7 days for delivery in the USA. Shipping time varies by location.
We email you a tracking number once your order ships. Items from one order can arrive in separate packages, so the kennel may turn up on a different day to anything else you ordered. The full details are on our shipping page.
Returns
You can return a product within 15 days of purchase, in its original packaging, with your receipt or order confirmation. If you changed your mind, or the kennel does not fit your space, the return shipping is at your cost. That is one more reason to measure first. Read our refunds and returns policy for the rest.
