- Is a wooden crate good for a puppy?
- Only for a calm, mostly house-trained puppy. Wood soaks up accidents and odors, so a plastic or wire crate is easier to clean during house training.
- How does it compare with a wire crate?
- It looks like furniture and rattles less, but it is heavier, harder to disinfect and has less airflow. Wire crates are better for messy or destructive dogs.
- Does it work as a side table?
- Yes. The flat top holds a lamp, plant or books, which is the main reason buyers choose it over a standard kennel.
- Can a strong chewer break out?
- A determined chewer can damage wood panels. This crate suits dogs that are already comfortable in a crate and do not chew at the bars.
- What size dog fits?
- Match the interior dimensions to your dog's standing height and length plus a little room to turn. Measure your dog before ordering, since wood crates are bulky.
- Does it need assembly?
- Yes, it ships flat-packed. Set aside time and have a screwdriver on hand; buyers often say the build takes longer than expected.
