Where to buy a dog crate in LA?

Basenji Talk
  • I'm going on a long road trip with my two furkids, and I leave LA in two weeks. About a week ago, I ordered a very nice collapsible dog crate (brand Guardian Gear) from a Web company, doggonegoodstuff.com. I find out today that not only has the item not been shipped, it's not being sent to me at all and the company has unceremoniously refunded my money. Grrrr! snarl!

    So now I need to find at least one collapsible crate that can fit in the back seat of my Toyota Corolla, and I need it quick. Does anyone have any suggestions on Los Angeles pet stores that carry collapsible crates? I'll call Petco and Petsmart but prefer to shop at a non-chain retailer.

    Suggestions?

  • I am not sure if the have that type of crate, but Centinela feed and pet store has a large selection. You may want to try there. I love that store! They are at 7600 S. Sepulveda Boulevard. Good luck!

    @EmKayLyn Another suggestion - you should also read “Don’t Do the Breed a Disservice” and the “Zande Put-Off” @ https://www.zandebasenjs.com

    They are pretty tough beds, Kai does the whole "nesting thing" with it and it's held up just fine, the material is strong :)

    No, Pat - she had them separated for at least 2.5 weeks (maybe longer). I don't take him out immediately when I see he has peed, because often he is sleeping - I put him in his crate and don't watch him, but go about my business or leave the house for a short time, then when I return, he has peed. Or, he does it when one of us comes down to let him out in the morning or in the middle of the night. I think I was wrong with what I said before about it being a longer time after feeding that he pees (or maybe it is just sometimes) - tonight, I fed him in his crate with no bedding, so I could observe what happened. Sure enough, 3 minutes after eating, he pees. I did remove him, mop it up, put in clean bedding, then put him back in, where he curled up and went to sleep. Should I consider feeding him out of his crate for now? ANY suggestions are really welcome. His sister is doing great with housebreaking. They are both incredibly easy to train on everything else - 5 minutes with a clicker today and they run and jump in their beds at the command "place." I don't notice any of the littermate codependence stuff - being very vigilant. We can separate them with no problem - walk them separately, train them separately (and together). They like to be with us as much or more as with each other. This housebreaking thing is my biggest anxiety right now. Keep any suggestions/advice coming… Please. Thanks in advance.

    @tanza: I can tell you that the cost in California (Bay Area) for what you describe as being done would have been just as much. Why am I not surprised. West coast living, be it in the U.S. or Canada is extremely costly. However, it has never stopped us from taking proper care when our animals have needed vet care. I should just remind myself that this bill was nothing compared to the bill for a sick parrot. Those can run around $1400.00, and we have had to do that a couple of times, but gladly, based on having one of the best avian vets in North America here.

    Owning a basenji requires a good sense of humor and a large dose of patience and a willingness to do some creative thinking to convince the basenjis what you want is really the same thing as what they want. So true, never a dull moment with these dogs
