Carlson Pet Products Pink Secure and Foldable Single Door Metal Dog Crate for Small Breeds with Multi-Point Locking System, 24" L x 18" W x 20.5" H

I chose this color because I have a female Pomeranian. I never knew these cages came in colors. The cage was simple to put together. I must say, I am a bit of an expert at this. I have put dozens of these cages together in my day in all different sizes. But, the instructions are still simple enough for a first timer. Even if lost, you could figure out how to put this cage together. These are very well made and I have no problem with it containing my 12 lb. dog. This sized crate comes in handy for all kinds of animal containment. I have used these for rehabilitating injured or sick animals and birds, raising chicks an ducks, and taming feral kittens.

The Single Door Wire Crate by Carlson in size SMALL is 24" long x 21" high and 18" wide. It weighs about 12 lbs. It is plastic coated and has a removable, nice bottom that is easy to clean. It took me all of 30 seconds to assemble it out of the box. As they state, it is a: Compact and Secure Deluxe Metal Dog Crate. This is something I really need for transporting my dog Rosie to the vet's office or when visiting family and friends. Rosie, being part Pomeranian and part Rat Terrier, is too energetic to be in a car unrestrained and when the crate is carefully secured in the back, she is safe. It also makes her feel safe and secure if visitors to my home are numerous or have larger dogs with them. Rosie's cage/crate is a soft blue in color and has a secure locking system on the door. I like that it is nice and roomy for her. The first time she went into it, to check for a size fit, she immediately laid down inside. When thunderstorms come into the area, Rosie takes one of her favorite toys and heads for her crate and her security blanket. It's very good that she feels the crate is a refuge for her, not a punishment, this way she comes and goes in at as she pleases at home. For my Rosie, this is the perfect sized crate for her. It is safe, secure and looks good too!
