Hi everyone,
I searched the other threads about crate sizes and I am still a little uncertain whether this crate size would fit the expected size of our future adult poodle.
The main issue I am having is I don't know how big/tall an adult poodle head will be based off the height of the withers.
If the adult poodle wither will be max 20 inches, then will the following crate size be good?
36" length x 23" width and 25" height. They advertise it for a dog up to 65 pounds, but I get the impression that poodles are relatively speaking more of an elongated elegant breed rather than a chunkier one. So I imagine the weights don't mean anything.
The same store is also offering 42" length x 27" width and 30" height (for up to 90 pounds)
(Of note, I did see a crate size of 36" x 24" x 27" but it was much more expensive because it was from a different brand).
Also, I did read about height of exercise pens and I got the impression that for a smaller standard poodle (e.g. max 20 inches at the withers) that a height of 36 or 42" would be good. We were thinking of using it mainly for when our dog is a puppy, so are thinking of opting for 36" to save a bit on space and money.
Thanks everyone!
