Dakota 283 G3 Framed Door Kennel - Large - Dark Granite

I love the color of this carrier seems to be very strong and sturdy. I do wish that I would’ve ordered a side door so the air conditioner could come in to the side. I was able to load in my F150 with the seats folded up. I would also like a carrier to have more ventilation and possibly a door on the back in case of a crash could get Dog out of either side. This might be very hot in the summer, so I am looking into ways of keeping it cool. I have an HRD dog Belgian Malinios that way, 62 pounds she is very comfortable, but I am still concerned about the crate overheating in the summer as she will be in the crate for extended amounts of time when we’re training or waiting for instructions on a dispatch.

John went out of his way to ensure I received the proper kennel for our trip from Virginia to California. It was like talking to a friend. I 100% recommend this kennel for its spacious size and stability. My yellow Labrador Retriever (73lbs) has more than enough room to turn around and stay comfortable and safe.

Up to three of these with the addition of the pup's kennels, can't say anything bad. Good construction, solid doors, and the doors lock fir extra security. Great option and a decent price for what it is, one piece molded kennel.

My German shepherd bent the door.

I purchased two of these about a month ago. This one is working wonderfully. The medium-size one is having issues with the door. I reached out to the seller from that order and received a blanket cookie cutter response telling me I was outside the 30 day window and there was nothing they can do. There’s a one year warranty and it would absolutely be a manufacturing defect or just need some adjustments which they could, walk me through. Instead, they opted to not try to help at all. Super frustrating for such a great product!

After our American bully destroyed two other kennels, we feel like she’s met her match with this one! She has severe anxiety, separation issues, this kennel has kept her safe, and with it all coming in one piece there are no weak spots. She actually has gotten used to it with the help of medication, of course, we are very happy with this product!

Had for my GSP puppy. Very heavy duty

This is extremely study and well made. The door latch closes and locks well. The floor is flat and the mat is excellent and fits perfectly. Worth the price.
