    Why little dogs do well in a PAWD

    1. 1. No wire bars.

      Solid walls with cut-out windows instead.

      "My yorkie puppy kept getting his foot caught in the wire crate he had and I worried so I bought this."

      Pamela K., KindTail customer review

      "Our 6 month old puppy kept getting her back paws stuck between the bars of our old crate."

      Cathy L., KindTail customer review
    2. 2. A den, not a cage.

      The covered top makes a small, enclosed space where little dogs settle in.

      "It is a perfect fit for my Shitzhu with anxiety. He never liked the wire crates so this is a big win for us!"

      Julian, KindTail customer review
    3. 3. Sized for small dogs.

      Two sizes, and both stop at 25 lb, so the space fits a little dog instead of swallowing her.

      "The PAWD crate is just the right size for my 4 lb. Affenpinscher."

      Kathryn, KindTail customer review
    4. 4. Easy to take along.

      The Small weighs 8 lb and folds down to 3.5 inches.

      "We will use it in our SUV and when we are on vacation."

      Patricia S., Yorkie owner

    What an independent reviewer said

    "Our recommendation would be the PAWD because it represents better value for money at an affordable starting point of $139.99 for the small version."

    Questions

    Can a puppy chew through it?

    It's plastic, so a determined chewer can do damage, and it isn't made for heavy chewers. Keep an eye on a chewer while they learn. One owner wrote:

    "two months have gone by and she hasnt really chewed on the crate at all, so thats a relief!"

    Ashley C., mini dachshund owner
    Which size should I get?

    Go by your dog's grown weight: Small up to about 12 lb, Medium about 10 to 25 lb. Long or tall dogs should size up.

    Do I need tools?

    No. It snaps together.

    Will it fit a dog over 25 lb?

    No. Both sizes stop at 25 lb.

    Can I fly with it?

    It isn't airline approved, but it folds flat to pack in your luggage.
