Dog kennels, as they're commonly called, can be used for more than just lugging around that loved member of your family. They can also be used to house-train your puppy, give the dog a comfy place to sleep or relax, and to keep it out of trouble while you're away.
Ensuring that the dog kennel is the right size can make the animal more comfortable. Generally speaking, kennels should be at least 4 inches higher and 4 inches longer than your dog. It should, in essence, be able to stand, sit and move around easily and with some freedom.
Also be sure your pet has enough water and food, as well as a blanket or other covering to provide padding against the hard floor.
See the related links for additional details on selecting the right size of kennel for your dog.
