huski Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I just have bedding in Daisy's crate. I put her food bowl in there for meals and take it out when she's finished. She puts the toys in there herself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RL1 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 That's a flash looking crate Huski. I've never seen those type. It looks more like a playpen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Take your pic, we have 11 of them There aren't any toys in them, as that just encourages them to bang around and play at night. We have hanging water buckets. Blankets are mostly double fleece, some have wool blankets and there's some dry bed as well. Food bowls are removed after any meals.

perrin Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Mine is the same as SBT123. Minus the washing basket but has an old doona cover draped over it at night for privacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teebs Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I have pretty much the same as the others, two crates, they have a med thickness mat in them both, Kaos also has a nice thick black mat, and some blankets (Atlas did have the same, but ate his ) Atlas hides his toys in his crate, and Kaos hides hers under my bed I have a blanket to put over them in winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WreckitWhippet Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I have canvas crate covers but I've found it nicer for the dogs to just rug them all in winter and to leave the heating on at night for them. I just use a cover whenever the bitches are in season, to protect the walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Fox Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Here you go Crate no 1. This is our bigger crate which stays in the bedroom. I have a Blue mesh bed in there (from Great Rugs) with a lambs wool zip off cover off it and then a few blankets on top of that. Bare in mind that this pic was taken in winter though. In summer we just have a light wool mat over the top of the BMB and his doona. And yep they are baby doonas, I found them on special for $15 at Target one day and couldn't help myself Crate no 2. It's a bit small for Kei now but he loves it all the same. It stays in the family room and he uses it as his bed during the day. In this one I just have one of those fluffy bumper mat things that you can buy at Big W with a blanket wrapped around it to keep it clean. I don't keep water bowls in the crates but this one has a coup cup clipped to the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WreckitWhippet Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I want to decorate all of mine to match the house We're about to change the flooring and the wall colour, so I'll make them all match in the next 6 months. My dogs have more bedding than I do and they get theirs washed every couple of days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the same crate for my puppy (19 weeks old) but no blanket at themoment because he keeps ripping them up and chewing them! he also 'digs' at it and lays on the plastic base anyway, pushing the mat/blanket aside... he has 2 soft toys in there which he just licks for some reason, but has never chewed them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 That's a flash looking crate Huski. I've never seen those type. It looks more like a playpen. Thanks, Rotty. I've had the metal ones before but I prefer the soft crates as they are easier to lug around for training/workshops/trials etc. I bought mine from ebay, it's the best quality crate I've ever had: http://myworld.ebay.com.au/aussiepetstuff/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparkyTansy Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 plain black metal crate like SBTs - mine is minus any kind of tray as Ari destroyed it when she was a pup... kind of wish i had got one with a metal tray instead!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kynta Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Don't have a photo but I have a large crate for my Dobe, Balou (he's 12 years old). It is in the lounge room and is left open for him to come and go as he pleases. Usual contents are several squeaky toys, sometimes a sock, a hair scrunchie - I even found a toothbrush in there one day. Yes that is 12 YEARS old not 12 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!
