Wireless and Electric Dog Fence Systems now Available

One of the hottest things in the pet industry these days is the invisible fence.  There are two main types of invisible dog fence systems out there.  There is the electric dog fence system that uses wire that you bury in the ground around the perimeter of the area you want your dog contained in, then there is the wireless dog fence system.  These systems use state of the art technology to set up boundaries and establish containment.  Both types of fences are very effective and humane.  The can cover many acres of area, with extra wire and accessories, and are much safer than letting your dog roam wherever he pleases.   There are even products out there that take the place of dog crates or kennels.  Each person has his/her own opinion about electronic products for their pets.  I suggest you do some research and base your opinion on that research.

Wood Dog Crates - A Quick Look

Wood dog crates offer a beautiful alternative to some of the duller plastic and wire dog crates.  They  come in a variety of sizes shapes, colors, and styles.  One of the best options for a wood dog crate is shown above.  This is a crate enclosure by Midwest Pet Products (Heritage Series).  It is actually a wood cover that goes over you already existing wire crate.  It is a nice option for people who already have a dog crate .  It comes in a nice cherry wood finish and can be used as an end table or other piece of furniture.  For those who do not have a dog crate, there are many other options as well.  There are some very nice wood dog crates available on the market to purchase.  Some have wire in the middle for your dog's protection and ventilation, and there are others that are made from solid wood.  They also include plenty of ventilation for your dog.  Wood dog crates are very finely constructed and do cost more than traditional dog crates but for those who are willing to spend the extra money, they really make a nice piece of furniture and also serve a useful purpose for your pet too.

Midwest Canine Camper Soft Dog Crates - Now Available

The Midwest Canine Camper is one of the best soft pet crates on the market.  This is a very sturdy soft crate.  These fabulous crates are perfect for camping and other outdoor activities.  They are great for indoor use too.  One of the coolest things about this crate is that there are no poles, straps, or tools are required for assembly.  Just pop it up and zip using Midwest's patented technology  That's it!  The Midwest Canine Camper Soft Dog Crate is made from heavy duty, 600 denier polyester with PVC backing for a water resistant soft crate.  A double sided, synthetic sheepskin cover on the floor makes it extra comfortable for your dog.  This dog crate will live up to its name!  For a lighter version, Midwest also makes the Canine Camper Day Tripper.  This too features the same pop and zip technology, is a bit lighter and comes at a lower price.  Both of these great versions are very affordable and I recommend them for anyone looking for a soft crate for their dog.

Vari Kennels - Still the Best

Last month I posted a topic that suggested that the Fashion Series Vari Kennel by Petmate was the best plastic dog crate on the market.  I would like to change my opinion and go as far as saying that all Vari Kennels by Petmate are the best plastic dog crates on the market.  We have used these great kennels in my family for many years.  I still have on that I use for my two year old lab that is probably as old as I am if not older.  My father got it many years ago.  He said at the time, you could only get them from the airlines.  How far we have come since then.  Now, there are many great plastic dog crates out there, and I am not saying a Vari Kennel is the only way.  I actually have and enjoy some other brands and models out there.  I'm just letting the crate do its talking.  I am 33 years old, and I do not know how old this Vari Kennel I have is, but I am sure it is one of the first models, and it is still going strong.

Soft Dog Crates - Now Available

Soft sided dog crates are really neat.  They have been growing in popularity recently and for good reasons.  They are light, portable, and they just plain look better than other types of dog crates.  If you are the traveling or camping type, a soft dog crate is the crate for you.  They fold flat, are easy to set up, and are very durable.  High quality soft dog crates are usually water resistant, can be staked to the ground, and have pockets to store things for your dog.  The only drawback of a soft dog crate is the fact that it is made of fabric.  If you have a dog that chews, no matter how tough it is, it is no match for a good set of teeth.  Get the information you need about soft dog crates when choosing one for your pet.

Chain Link Dog Kennels - Now at Canine Crate Store

Many of us have thought about a nice chain link outdoor dog kennel in our back yard.  They are a great solution for many problems dog owners have.  They are great for peace of mind when you are at work or away from home knowing that your dog is safe and secure.  Chain link dog kennels are also great for those of us who do not have fenced in yard and would like our pet to get some fresh air without having to be supervised the entire time.  Chain link dog kennels, however, are not a solution to proper exercise an care for the needs of your dog.  There are many different ways to put a chain link kennel in your yard.  If you think a one of these great kennels is for you, be sure to get all of the information about chain link dog kennels you need when a kennel for your dog.

Wire Dog Crates - New at Canine Crate Store

Wire dog crates have been around for many years.  They are some of the most durable and best dog crates available, provided you select one of high quality.  Many of the cheaper knockoffs are flimsy and do not fold.  Most of the high end wire dog crates are of a collapsible design which allows them to fold flat for easy storage.  A good wire dog crate will last for many years, unfortunately much longer than our beloved pets.  They come in many shapes and sizes and are available in most places you find pet products.  Make sure you get all the information you need when selecting a dog crate for your dog.

New Puppy and her Dog Crate

I got to see a new puppy in action yesterday, and boy was she great.  My best friend just got a Brussel Griffon pup.  What a cutie.  They have been implementing a dog crate during their house breaking of the pup, and once again it is just more evidence that this method works!   I was able to baby sit her a few weeks ago when she was brand new to the human world, and I had to keep a close eye on her to make sure she wasn't going to use my house as a bathroom.  Then yesterday, I was privileged to take on the task of baby sitter again.  Actually, I should say that my 2 year old Lab is the real baby sitter, I just get to supervise them both.  Since the first time she stayed at my house a few weeks ago was a night and day difference.  Only a few weeks of using a dog crate as a house breaking tool, made this a completely different pup.  She was great!  She knew the ins and outs of potty training.  My props to my friends, and another reminder to me that dog crates and kennels are great tools.
