Dog Wire Crates

A wire crate gives a dog a den of its own, keeps a puppy safe when unsupervised, and speeds up house training considerably. Used properly it is somewhere a dog chooses to go, not a punishment. Pet Corner Dubai stocks dog wire crates from NutraPet, Contour, M-Pets and Four Paws.

What makes our dog wire crate range stand out

1. Divider panels that grow with a puppy

A crate should be just big enough to stand, turn and lie down. A movable divider lets you buy the adult size once and reduce it while your puppy is small, which is what makes crate house training work.

2. Airflow that suits UAE conditions

Wire crates ventilate far better than plastic carriers. In a warm climate that matters, particularly for a crate that sits in a room without direct air conditioning.

3. Removable trays for easy cleaning

A slide-out base tray means accidents are cleaned in a minute rather than by moving the whole crate.

4. Fold-flat designs

Most fold down for storage or car transport, which is useful in apartment living where a permanent crate is not always practical.

Frequently asked questions

What size crate does my dog need?

Big enough to stand fully upright, turn around and lie stretched out, and no bigger. Too much space lets a puppy toilet in one end and sleep in the other, which defeats the purpose. Buy for adult size and use the divider.

How long can a dog be left in a crate?

A rough guide for puppies is one hour per month of age up to a maximum of four hours, and no adult dog should be crated for a full working day. A crate is a short-term management tool and a safe resting place, not a way to contain a dog for eight hours.

How do I get my dog to like the crate?

Feed meals in it with the door open, throw treats inside, and let your dog come and go freely for the first week. Close the door only once they settle in it willingly, and build duration slowly. Never use the crate as punishment, or you undo all of it.

My dog cries in the crate at night. What should I do?

Put the crate in your bedroom for the first weeks, since most crying is about isolation rather than the crate. Make sure they have toileted immediately before bed. Wait for a pause in the crying before letting them out, so you are not rewarding the noise.
