ya they r handy for small dogs. we've had our terrier since she was a pup so it
was great for house training. i've never seen a crate for a big dog but i don't
think we'd have enough room for 1 of those. the small 1 takes enough room. our
terrier only uses hers to eat in now. we paid 70 euro for ours so i dread to
think how much it costs for a big 1.
