Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have a 50 lb. cattle dog and purchased the XL, 50-70 lb. kennel to give him some extra wiggle room. The kennel looked great and felt strong after putting it together, but that didn't last long. My dog is very used to being in a kennel as that is where he is throughout the night, and I have not once heard or seen him try to make an escape. He very willingly goes in his kennel, even during the day just to relax. So I was surprised to see that one day after being in his kennel for a couple hours he had bent the door and broken a piece of plastic where the bottom door leg inserts. I had to force the door open (as the top leg was still inserted), and once open I was not longer able to close and secure the door properly. The welding and reinforcement on the door is very weak and even for a smaller or inexperienced "escape artist" this is not a very sturdy or reliable kennel. I am disappointed in this purchase and would not recommend.
