Kennel Aire Crate

Basenji Talk
  • I'm looking into buying a Kennel Aire Commander series crate for in the car.
    what do you guys think would be the best size crate for travel for a basenji? I have really big crates at home, but I don't think the travel wire crate should be that big.

    -Nicole

  • I think the car size is a 144 or 145 - which equates to about a 200 wire crate in other brands.

    BTW, good luck finding one :D:D - they don't make the Commander anymore and IF they show up on ebay, they usually go $150+ and don't have bottom pan.

  • Ebay was my plan I was expecting to pay about $150, but I guess I need to modify that idea?

    Sounds like she is letting you know where she is - Lela really (I mean REALLY) howls when she does not know where we are. When we leave our B's alone, we always tell them we are leaving and when we will be back. They understand. We don't use crates.

    @Gabriel: I have a small travel type crate that I put Noel in while we are away from home and at night. she is 14 weeks. She is really getting to big for this. What types of crates do you keep your B's in? I am looking at a medium size cage type kennel. 30L x 19W x 21H inches I want to be sure she has plenty of room to lay down in it. What is your advice? i got a crate big enough 4 a large dog. like a lab or something simular. I had 2 get the travel crate because in a wire crate she would pull things into the crate and eat it. comforters rugs you name it. She even ate her bed. fluff everywhere.

    I put Tayda and Lenny in a kennel in the backseat…. they seem to be pretty happy with it. They wouldn't sit still in a carseat.... also helps with the hair all over the seat issue.
