The first thing that impressed me about the Ultra Vari Dog Kennel is its robust and durable construction. Made with high-quality materials, this kennel can withstand the rigors of travel and the natural movements of larger dogs, ensuring it remains in top-notch condition for years.
The spacious design of the kennel allows my extra-large dog to comfortably stand, turn around, and lie down without feeling confined. The ample space promotes a sense of security for my pet, making them feel more at ease during travel or when resting inside the kennel.
Safety is a top priority, and the Ultra Vari Dog Kennel excels in this aspect. The secure door latch ensures that my dog remains safely contained inside the kennel, even during bumpy rides or unexpected movements.
The kennel's ventilation system is thoughtfully designed, providing adequate airflow to keep my pet cool and comfortable, even during extended journeys. The side vents promote proper air circulation, reducing the risk of overheating.
I appreciate the kennel's portability, with a comfortable handle on top that makes it easy to carry and transport. Whether I'm traveling by car or air, the Ultra Vari Dog Kennel's portability ensures a hassle-free travel experience.
The kennel's heavy-duty design and reinforced corners add to its overall durability, offering extra protection during travel. I can rest assured that my dog is safe and secure inside the kennel, regardless of the journey's conditions.
Another notable advantage is the kennel's ease of cleaning. The smooth plastic surface and removable tray at the bottom allow for quick and convenient cleanup, saving time and effort after every trip.
In conclusion, the Petmate Ultra Vari Dog Kennel is the ultimate travel crate for extra-large dogs, combining durability, comfort, and safety in one package. Its spacious and secure design, along with the thoughtful ventilation system, provides a reassuring environment for my pet during journeys. If you're a pet owner looking for a reliable and heavy-duty travel crate for your large dog, the Ultra Vari Dog Kennel is the perfect choice. I highly recommend this kennel for its outstanding quality and performance in ensuring your pet's safety and comfort during travel!
The quality has cheapened A LOT over the years. The plastic is so much thinner and brittle feeling. The door is definitely not seated as sturdily as they used to be. The top is not flat. There is a big hump on it. Years ago you could stack quite a bit on top of them if you needed to. Now you just push on the top with one hand and it gives. I would not put a dog in this that is not well behaved in. Especially for travel.
This is a good and well made crate. It was easy to assemble and is made pretty well. The high side metal vents provide light and air along with security for your baby. This is an important part of house breaking and having the proper fit for your animal usually discourages soiling inside the crate.
This crate measures 36x25x27 inches and weighs in at 18.5 pounds. It is sturdy and doesn't move around while your dog is moving around inside. Our Diego weighs in at 46 pounds and is approximately 25 inches so this is the perfect fit for him. It allows him room to move, lay down, and stand up yet it isn't so big as to let him have room to do his business. We did have an open crate for him but he quickly figured out that if he lifted his leg, he could take care of business while not soiling his crate. This covered crate works much better and seems more secure for his wildness and bad attitudes!
The crate is easy to clean, move and store. We are not big travelers but the crate has places for hold down straps for plane travel. I personally would secure the door better for air travel. We place blankets on the bottom to keep things cozy and comfy for our little spoiled brat.
We are retired so Diego is only in the crate when we leave to go out. He walks right in and settles in nicely. We keep his crate in our attached and heated garage.
The only problem is the door latch. The top latch fits great but the bottom one is a little tricky to operate. I suppose when you put a metal door in molded plastic this is to be expected.
If you have an animal that you need to keep contained while you are out or working, this one works, is made well, and is sturdy. We are pleased with this product.
