What Should I Look for in a Dog Kennel for Golden Retrievers?
Insulation and Ventilation
One important thing to think of when looking for a dog kennel for Golden Retrievers is proper ventilation and insulation in the kennel. Some kennels can grow quite stuffy and begin to smell over time if not properly ventilated, and yet a kennel with too much airflow in the kennel may not be cozy or comfortable for your dog, especially in the colder months. Find a kennel that is built with strong materials and good insulation, so your dog is not getting too much draft from the outdoors while looking for features like chain link fencing on the run, and windows to increase proper airflow into the kennel. The location also plays a factor in the amount of airflow your dog gets in the kennel, so be careful that you place the kennel in a place that gets some airflow without being exposed completely to the wind.
Durable Construction
Another important factor to watch out for in your new dog kennel for Golden Retrievers is durable construction and materials. Many dog kennels are made from flimsy wire and will last only a few years if that even. Your new dog kennel should last you for as long as you need it. Some durable features that a good dog kennel should have are chain link fencing, aluminum panels, or some other type of secure fencing that will not break down, solid flooring, and strong dog doors. Some good flooring options are polyurea flooring and composite decking on the run. There are some other good durable flooring options that could work in your kennel, but be sure that your choices are comfortable for your dog’s paws and joints as well. Don’t sacrifice your dog’s well-being and comfort for what is cheap and convenient.
Safety and Security
Your dog’s safety is of utmost importance, so it is very crucial to create a kennel that is a safe place for your dog, especially if it is spending much time there. Check your kennel for sharp edges, and parts of the fence that could have worn away and left sharp exposed pieces, be sure the dog door is intact, and the feeding and watering bowls are in good shape. Invest in durable locks on your dog kennel that your dog cannot easily compromise, and add items to your kennel that will make your dog more comfortable.
Best Kennel Sizes for Golden Retrievers
What size kennel should you get for your Golden Retriever? As a general rule, it is safe to go for a kennel that is at least twice the length of your dog, and at least twice the width as well. Your dog should be able to move about relatively easily without feeling cramped. The Dog Kennel Collection offers a variety of dog kennels for your Golden Retriever. We have both commercial and residential kennels in a variety of sizes. Maybe you want an 8×10 residential kennel for one dog or a 14×30 commercial kennel for 5 dogs. Whether you have two Golden Retrievers or 12, The Dog Kennel Collection has the kennel you need.
