Me neither but they are cool. We don't even keep the door on their crate. It would be a waste. I bet in time they will come down in price. Maybe...... |

| Very nice aesthetic but what a stupid shape for efficiency. I can only imagine having 5 or 6 little dog bubbles around..not. |

| I have to agree with Bethany on this one....it's "cute", but not extremely practical... especially since the bulk of crate "stuff" (accessories such as pads, etc.) are mostly made to conform to the more standard-sized crates. Since I take my wire crate on the road a lot... and it folds up into a small suitcase "thingie"... I prefer it. This might be nice if it was going to be in the house and never moved. |

Oh, those are cool looking. But, like everyone else, don't think I'd spend that sort of money on a crate!!!! But, if one could, I guess pratical is not something one would worry about!  |

| Yeah, it just occurred to me that the roundness would be a downside in my case because the square one I have for Daisy comes in handy as an extra "side table" sometimes.. LOL! |

| Cute but I agree with Nora and Bethany....those of us with several crates would have houses looking like a campground for canine Boy Scouts! LOL Plus...no way would I pay that for a crate.... |

| I've seen and like those ones. If in the future I ever have two ratties in need of two crates, those would be a good choice. Functionality and asthetically pleasing - gotta love that. |

Large: 27¾"H x 36"L x 24"W, weighs 61 lbs.,
dogs 30-50 lbs.
X-large 32"H x 42"L x 28"W, weighs 94 lbs.,

These are cool, too, and meant to go "around" a standard crate. They have a variety of sizes to fit different crates, but are pretty pricey. ($500 or so!!!) But a handy man - or woman - could probably handcraft something similar for much less!
They even have an armoire!

That's pretty cool, considering its not edible or anything...which is the main concern we have here...you know, with the 7 lbs. rat terrier eating a plastic kennel in order to escape (happened months ago, and it STILL blows my mind).
I'm going to knit that freaking bald cat next to the gold cages a full-body sweater. I feel bad for the thing! I guess its not doing too awful bad if it lives in a crate that costs 11K?? Jeebus. |
