Pet Mate Portable Pet Home, Large, taupe/coffee

Great, light weight and easy to assemble

We paid $65 shipped and bow its 98 plus tax etc so not sure I'd pay that but definitely worth whar I paid. Perfect for vet visits etc and she uses it as a hideout at home. Great quality and less scary for her than the plastic ones. She was like spider cat trying to get her in the plastic carrier. Not going in door or through top. This one was 0 issues.

The media could not be loaded.  Es perfecta, la uso para transportar a mi pug en mi auto (Mazda Cx3) que es muy compacto; aún así ocupa solo un lugar en el asiento de atrás y mi perrita va muy cómoda.

We bought two of these for a very specific size purpose. We bought a new Ram 1500 crew cab truck. We have two flat-coated retrievers that are well trained to wire and soft crate travel. The truck has aneat feature that I in particular love. The back seats fold upward flat and then there is a sturdy platform with legs that goes down in its place. We needed something to safely contain the dogsIn the back and fit nicely too. We wanted soft crates so that there would be some give and also to keep hair and slobber a little more contained in our new truck. Thes two crates front to back together lengthwise are the perfect width. We put a couple of foam dog crate pads under the crates for cushioning without taking up room inside the crates. We would not confine our dogs for extra long rides in the crates but for short trips it works great. Living in Texas you need the dogs to have access to air conditioning most of the time especially if they live mostly indoors. One of our dogs is older so we also bought an extra long ramp to help them into the crates. I hope this helps someone with a similar space puzzle. Bonus that the color of the crates is the same as the interior of the truck. They seem very sturdy and well made. Price was not bad either. They arrived quickly too.The height of the crates was also important. We wanted enough where they could turn around but also short enough to not obscure the driving view and to give them protection from being lower behind the front seats and console. These do that well.

Update: We traveled quite a bit this holiday season and this portable crate was absolutely awesome! I have seen some reviews about bad zippers but suspect it's due to misuse. You have to raise each side before zipping it -- just common sense, people. Otherwise, there is too much pressure on the zipper. I think zippers on this crate are sturdy. Another suggestion is placing your dog's favorite bed inside. The crate (we have extra large) has plenty of room to add an extra large fluffy dog bed our dog loves. Because the crate folds flat, we place the crate in the cargo area and cover it with dog's bed when on the road. The dog sprawls like a queen! :) When we get to the destination, we unfold the crate, throw the bed inside, and voila -- cozy house that feels and smells like home. For added warmth, pull down flaps.The pet home folds and unfolds in a few seconds. When folded, it looks like a large but very thin portfolio, so can be transported in any car, even a small passenger car. The folded frame is fairly sturdy so it's unlikely to collapse, unless the dog goes totally crazy in it. It's a heavy fabric but, of course, won't work for any dogs who usually chew on/rip the bedding. Not a problem for us. Our dog is approximately 90 lbs and the pet home is large enough for her to be very comfortable. If you have a large well-behaved dog, it's an awesome investment we strongly recommended.

I just received the Petmate Portable Pet Home today. Not only is it SO easy to assemble (zip up the front side, then the back side and VOILA! it's done!) but my dog went into it right away! It has a small handle at the top which makes it easy to move around once assembled and also comes with a little carrying case for when it's folded up. I bought an additional dog mat, just in case the included fleece mat wasn't up to snuff - but I have to say that it's actually pretty good. I'll be using both mats anyway - but I won't feel guilty if we ever have to leave the additional padding at home. The additional mat does fit in the bag too BTW...Hallelujah! The days of dragging our clunky home crate around are behind us. As well as trying to pack the dang thing on road trips! It does say on the box that it's not recommended for chewing puppies or aggressive dogs that aren't crate trained. Other than that, it seems pretty sturdy and well made. My dog doesn't have issues with being crated, so I don't foresee construction issues for us. I also like the fact that all the little "windows" can be easily exposed or covered, since we always cover Bubba's crate with something anyway.Finally - we got the Small size and there is tons of room in it. Bubba is a Maltese mix and he's only 7 lbs., but pretty "tall" - if you know what I mean. His head is about 13" off the ground, so the Mini wouldn't have worked.
