Doing as much traveling as we do with dogs,I have to wonder, what kind of
crash protection a wire crate gives? Wouldn't it just crumple or come apart
in
a good impact??? Just curious.
Kathy, who hates how much room the airline crates take up in the van, lol

Hi Kathy,
Actually, the old Kennel-Aire Commander crates were extremely sturdy - much
more so than the plastic crates currently produced by Vari-Kennel and others.
However, most of the current wire crates are poorly made with much softer
gauge wire, wide spacing and with a cheaply made locking mechanism. I do
like the wire crates because of the greater air flow and the dog's ability to
see their surroundings. I have received a tip that the old Kennel-Aire
company
is still producing their wonderful crates - I am in pursue of a contact and
price listing and will pass on to others what I have found. We, old timers,
are always delighted to find the excellent quality products that we enjoyed
for many years.
Thanks guys....
DK
