    @SteffiS thanks a lot for the photos. Indeed there is a lot of room in your crate. My 94cm long crate is in transit so hopefully i will be able to post some impressions tomorrow evening after i get it and put it together. Ripple is a very nice dog. How tall is he and how many kg does he have? Rocky is 62cm tall and around 30.6kg. He just turned 1 year old last week.

    Ripple was weighed yesterday 29.3 kg, after much wriggling we are pretty certain his height is 60 cm.

    Ok, i am glad to say that the new crate is in the house and i managed to put it together. the extra 10cm seem to buy Rocky a bit more comfort. While assembling the crate Rocky tried to enter inside countless times even when the crate was upside down ;). Tonight i will try to fit it in the car and if all ok i will keep it.

    Here is Rocky in the new crate:

    He definitely looks a happy boy now :). The crate does look a better fit for him as well.

    Rocky does look more comfortable...just a few inches has made all the difference. He is a lovely looking boy btw..:)

    @SteffiS Ripple does remind me of Benson! :D

    Please tell me it's only in looks and not in training chaos and car locking ability :D:D

    Hi! Im new to the forum. Im not sure if I'm doing this right? I get my * week english Chocolate lab this weekend . Roxy is her name. I was wondering about a crate for the car how big too? I will only use it till she is bigger so I can use the harness and seatbelt. Because I can't use that when she is so little right? Sorry if Im on the wrong thread..
