Crate Sizes

Your dog must be able to stand up without touching the top of the crate, sit down, and turn around comfortably.

HOW TO CALCULATE CRATE SIZE #

A = length of animal from tip of nose to base/root of tail.
B = height from ground to elbow joint.
C = width across shoulders or widest point (whichever is the greater).
D = height of animal in natural standing position from top of the head or the ear tip to the floor (whichever is higher).

Note:
If travelling more than 1 animal in a crate, measurements A, B, C and D must relate to the largest animal.

Minimum internal container dimensions for a single animal #

• Container length = A + ½ B
• Container width = C x 2
• Container height E = D + bedding

Container width calculation for multiple animals #

• Two animals: C x 3
• Three animals: C x 4
