How it works:
The Vari Kennel Traditional Dog Kennel is great for:
•
Airline travel – Meets most airline requirements for bringing pets on board. (We recommend checking with your airline for specific requirements.)
•
Separation Anxiety – Helps eliminate your pet's destructive behavior and keeps your pet safe from unforeseen dangers when you are away.
•
Sleeping – Pets will come to think of this crate as their own room or safe space in the house.
•
House breaking – Pets do not normally urinate or defecate where they sleep, which means no accidents in the home.
•
Training with multiple pets – Using a crate can reduce the aggressiveness between pets when training.
Cautions:
Check with the airline at least two weeks in advance for their specific rules and requirements. To avoid strangulation, never leave a pet unattended with a collar on, including inside a kennel.
Periodically inspect the plastic shell for cracks, especially after exposing the kennel to severe shocks, changes in temperature or other harsh or challenging conditions. Young animals should be allowed out of their kennel well before the limits of their bladder and bowel control will tolerate. Never stack kennels with animals inside. Check and tighten latches and screws periodically, especially before moving your animal in the kennel.
Separate two kennel halves by cutting the plastic ties.
•
Turn botton half of kennel over and place flat inside on the floor. Place top half of kennel, with side up, onto the bottom half and ensure parts are aligned.
Installing the Door:
•
Hold top section and place metal door in
opening so ends of hinge and latch rods fit in holes.
Lower top section so hinge and latch rod fit into
holes.
•
Insert bolts from the underside of rim through holes and
secure with specially designed wing nuts.Tighten wing
nuts by hand only. It is advisable to check wing nuts
periodically to maintain tightness, especially if the kennel
receives heavy use.
Tip: To help avoid choking and other serious injuries, remove all collars, harnesses and other items, such as pet clothing, before placing your pet in the kennel.
How to Purchase the Right Size Crate or Kennel for Your Dog or Cat
•
Your pet should be able to stand and fully turn around in the crate.
•
Pick a size that your pet will fit into when fully grown.

Great for normal Dog
Good Kennel. Looks sturdy. However my dog decided she wanted out and pulled the door in. This took her several days to work the door until she could excape. At this point it is a very nice dog house for her in the house. Do they sell just the door?

I have a golden retiever who has managed to get out of his crate every time. Granted,they didn't have the lock type that I see on your vari-kennel. Do you have any suggestions how to get the most out of this product? Is it guaranteed?
The lock on the Vari-Kennel should make a difference in keeping your Escape Artist in his crate. All the products 1800PetMeds offer come with a 100% money back guarantee. Below is a link that may help you with crate use.
I need the weight of a giant dog kennel before I purchase it. The one im most interested in is the 48x32x35 inch kennel. Could you please tell me how much it weighs? Thanks, Tia
