MidWest Cozy Crates

A Cozy Crate for Every Home

As instinctual den animals, it's important for dogs to have a comfy place to nest. Crates also help with potty training and reducing habits like chewing or barking, while providing a safe, den-like home for your fur baby. MidWest designs their crates with safety, security and comfort as their priority. No matter the age of your dog, you're sure to find the right fit for your unique pal.

Convenience and Comfort, All in One

For a lightweight crate that requires no tools, folds flat, and still has the security of heavy-duty slide-bolt latches, look no further than the MidWest iCrate. It’s made for easygoing dogs and even comes with a divider panel so it can grow with your pup. Pair that with a removable, ease-to-clean plastic pan, sturdy carrying handle, and surface protective rubber feet to create the recipe for a crate made just for your dog.

A Crate for All LifeStages

Made with heavy-gauge steel and wire mesh, MidWest's Life Stages is a sturdy cage that can offer extra security. Rubber rollers protect your floors while a sturdy carrying handle makes it easy to move before your pal gets in. With rounded corners to protect your dog, slide bolt latches to keep him safely inside, and a divider panel that can be moved—and removed as your pup grows—it's a crate for all life stages.

Secure, Sturdy and Safe

For optimal security and safety, the Ultima Pro is MidWest's most durable crate, made of professional-gauge steel designed to stand up to chewers and stronger dogs. The dual door access allows your dog to enter and exit on either side—but only when you say so! Your dog will feel safe and cozy in this retreat, made just for those pups who need a little extra safekeeping.

Questions & Answers

51 Customer Questions


How do you connect two pens to make a larger pen?


What is the weight of pen


Can I detach the panels so I can move the door?

Answer by ChewyJul 22, 2018
The panels do not detach form each other. The Exercise Pen can be set up in many different configurations.

Can the pen be opened up and used as a fence?

Answer by ChewyJun 19, 2019
This pen can be detached to use as a fence, but the fence may not be stable, as the pen is not balanced to free-stand.

My daughter was hesitant to put her puppy in a restrictive environment such as the standard crates. This pen offers a much better alternative, because it is spacious, non-restrictive and see through. Additionally, being able to select the shape is nice as well. Pets can see everything going on while still being contained in a certain space. Added benefit is the door that allows pets to actually walk out of the pen, as opposed to having to lift them out which can be cumbersome as the pet grows.

I bought a wire exercise pen in 2012 and had to replace it because the spring on the door gave out. It was made by a different brand and the door closed differently, but you also needed to secure the structure closed with metal clips. I thought I was safe buying this pen because it is made by Midwest Pets, but my 16 pound puppy is more than capable to knocking over this structure. The whole front of this exercise pen is just not secure. I can't believe this structure is still being sold. I am now on a search to find a wire exercise pen like the one I bought more than 10 years ago....hoping one is still sold somewhere. Will gladly send this one back.

My puppy climbed out of anything 24 inches high. 48 inches high made it look like I had installed a jail cell in my home. This 36 inch tall enclosure is exactly the right size for my puppy. I also have the cover that fits this pen exactly. Between the two, my puppy has the right amount of space and security.

This pen is made welland has plenty of room but needs additional closures. You only get 3 and my new puppy could move/pull the pen around. I also purchased the base floor cover which helped keep its shape significantly but still added additional zip ties. Well worth the money.

I recently got two puppies, and as they have grown a little in the past couple of weeks, from the first week of having them in my living room, they stay in place, but if they begin to roughhouse a bit, then the play pen will move when pushed up against it. It comes with pins you can put into the ground, but those are not helpful, as I have wood floors. I'm don't think they will grow to be very big, but when full grown, they might be able to jump over it. This would be perfect for a small breed like the one in the photo. I believe my pups are going to be small-medium sized.
