I have used wire for about 40 years. A good quality wire is safe. Obviously if you have a strong dog who is determined to break out, you may need to go to the uber expensive crates that are almost solid metal. Few dogs need those. As Pat said, no top means no dog. They laugh at 6 feet, much less 40 inches. They can jump or climb easily. Plastic ones are more easily chewed unless the solid ones... which block view and air.
Help needed w/hunting study

I have NO additional information about this; I'm simply cross-posting from another site,The Basenji Native Traits Preservation Project :

Hi all,
I have written a few posts and had an article printed in the Basenji
about some testing we developed for hunting traits in basenjis. I had
asked for a little help with the testing and for volunteer dogs with
the testing being conducted on one or two days during the Nationals.
I received a couple of calls and well wishes for the project but
nobody has really stepped forward.I'm fine with it if nobody is really interested; I just don't really
have the time to set this all up and not have any dogs to test. So, I
am throwing out one last request for help and dogs. Feel free to
cross post this request. If I don't get any significant response by
9/10/07 I will have to shut the testing program down for the time being.Jeff
