Dog Kennels, Crates & Accessories—Safe Spaces for Home or Away
Dog kennels, crates, and accessories all create a safe, dedicated space for your furry friend. Our selection of containment provides your dog with security, while catering to their natural instinct to den. From housebreaking your new puppy to keeping the furniture chew-free, crates and kennels can be an effective training tool.
Crate sizes
To find the right crate size, make sure your dog can comfortably stand, turn and lie down. If your crate is too big, it could lead to the soiling of the space, while containment that’s too small creates a cramped and anxious environment. If you’re shopping for a puppy, it’s fine to buy a crate suited for their adult size and use dividers to adjust the space as they grow. For more tips, check out our dog crate sizes guide.
The differences between crates and kennels
Crates are usually used indoors, while kennels are usually used outdoors and are less portable. In moments of stress, indoor and outdoor dog kennels can serve as a peaceful and safe space for your pup to den. Some pet parents prefer plastic dog crates over wire dog crates because they are easier to use in cars and on plane rides.
Accessories can easily make your four-legged pal’s crate or kennel more inviting. Orthopedic and memory foam dog crate beds, create cozy sleeping surfaces that relieve pressure points. If you know your pup likes to retreat to quiet and cool hideaways, use a dog crate covers. You can also try attachable dog bowls, expandable dividers, and trays.
Dog kennels and crates are convenient housetraining supplies that ease young pups into living indoors. They also come in handy should your dog become injured or sick. Instead of chasing your furry pal around to ensure they’re safe, dog crates limit their movement and keep them comfortably contained. Before placing your dog in their safe zone, remember to introduce them to crate training with patience and consistent training sessions. Browse Petco today and get free shipping on orders of $35!

The ideal location for your dog crate should be comfortable, safe, visible, and convenient for both you and your dog. A popular choice is a quiet corner in the living room, bedroom, or kitchen.
