Plastic Dog Crates
Give your dog a safe place to call his own with plastic dog crates for home use and travel. Chewy has a wide selection of plastic dog kennels and crates of all types, including large plastic dog crates, plastic crates for small dogs, and everything in between.
Dogs have a natural denning instinct, so many vets recommend crate training to help them feel safe and calm. Many pup parents like plastic dog crates for this purpose, since they are lightweight, portable, sturdy and well-ventilated. Choose a plastic crate that is large enough for your dog to stand up and turn around in, but don't get one that is too big. Measure your dog and consult the size chart on each Chewy dog crate listing to find a plastic kennel that is the correct size.
You can also use plastic dog crates as travel kennels, and many are airline-approved and ideal for car travel, as well. Plastic dog kennels are perfect for transporting your dog to the vet, for short and extended trips, and for taking your pup with you around town. Top-entry plastic dog crates provide easy access and loading, and work well for smaller dogs. For larger dogs, features like carry handles and rollers can make moving large crates a little bit easier. You should also make sure your large plastic kennel has a sturdy latch, especially if you have a rowdy or powerful dog.
You can make your dog's plastic crate more comfortable by using crate mats & pads to add cushioning and provide extra traction. We also carry a range of crate covers & accessories like bumpers and crate warmers to make your dog's crate even more cozy. Chewy has dog crates in a wide range of sizes and designs. Shop our extensive selection of wire and plastic dog crates and kennels and find the perfect one for your pup!
Frequently Asked Questions about Plastic Dog Crates
Are metal or plastic dog crates better?
Metal dog crates can be better for certain uses, while plastic dog crates are better for others. Wire dog crates allow for better airflow and give your dog a 360-degree view of the room. Most are also fully collapsible for easy storage. Plastic dog crates may be more comfortable for many dogs, and the greater coverage on the sides and back may be better for excitable dogs, those in drafty rooms or for travel. Plastic dog kennels are often more lightweight than wire crates, as well.
What is the best plastic dog crate?
The best plastic dog crate is a sturdy one that is the right size for your dog. Look for helpful features like carry handles and top-loading doors for smaller dogs. Larger doorways and reinforced hardware are important features for large plastic dog crates. If you plan to travel with your dog, make sure to get an airline-approved carrier or one that fits in your car's cargo area for road trips. Chewy has a great selection of plastic dog crates, so you are sure to find all the best options for any use.
Can dogs chew through plastic crates?
Some dogs can chew through plastic crates, and others may chew through wire crates, too. If you have a dog who likes to chew his crate, look for one with heavy-duty construction and talk to your vet about possible behavioral solutions. Your dog might be suffering from separation anxiety or boredom and calming medication or more exercise may help.
What size plastic crate should I get my dog?
You should get your dog a plastic crate size that is neither too large nor too small. Some people may assume that bigger is better, but a crate that's too large can bump your dog around dangerously during travel and make him feel less secure. Your dog should also be able to stand up and turn around in the kennel, so don't get one that is too small. To find the right size crate, first measure your dog from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail. Then, measure him from the top of the head to the floor while he is standing or sitting upright. Add 4 inches to each of these measurements to determine the ideal dimensions for a plastic dog crate. Chewy includes a size and weight guide along with measuring instructions on every plastic dog crate listing.
