For small dogs, a travel crate needs to be portable while giving your pet room to settle. This soft kennel is designed for car journeys, outdoor outings and everyday use at home. Its foldable construction makes it easier to carry between settings, while mesh panels provide airflow. Before choosing a size, measure your dog’s length and height so you can select a crate that allows them to stand, turn around and lie down.

Which size should I choose for my dog?

The XS size measures 20 × 13 × 13 in (50.8 × 33 × 33 cm) and is intended for toy-sized dogs weighing up to 13 lb (5.9 kg). The interior is designed to give a correctly sized small dog space to stand, turn around and lie down. Measure your pet’s height and length before selecting a size; the weight guidance alone does not confirm that the interior will fit your dog.

• S: 26 × 18 × 18 in (66 × 45.7 × 45.7 cm), for dogs up to 33 lb (15 kg).
• M: 32 × 23 × 23 in (81.3 × 58.4 × 58.4 cm), for dogs up to 55 lb (24.9 kg).
• L: 38 × 26 × 26 in (96.5 × 66 × 66 cm), for dogs up to 70 lb (31.8 kg).
• The XS size is suited to toy breeds such as Toy Poodles, Dachshunds, Pomeranians and Chihuahuas; examples for the larger sizes include French Bulldogs, Beagles, Corgis, Huskies and Labradors.

How does the crate secure for car travel?

The crate has a built-in safety tether and adjustable fixing straps for anchoring it to a car seat. Anti-slip corner pads help limit sliding, and zipper teeth designed to resist pawing help prevent a pet from opening the zipper. It is made for car travel and designed to fit most sedan, SUV and truck back seats or trunks, so compare the crate’s selected size with the space available in your vehicle.

• The reinforced steel frame has a stated support capacity of up to 44 lb (20 kg); the XS pet-size guidance remains up to 13 lb (5.9 kg).
• The frame folds for transport and storage.
• Car-seat straps and the tether are built into the crate.

What materials and comfort features does it have?

The outer cover uses 600D Oxford fabric with high-density mesh. The fabric is designed to resist scratches and bites while the mesh allows airflow, creating a breathable enclosure for resting. A removable soft cushion provides a cushioned surface, whether the crate is used at home or taken along on an outing.

• The cover combines Oxford fabric with mesh panels.
• The cushion can be removed for cleaning.
• Side pockets provide storage for snacks, leashes and waste bags.

How do setup and cleaning work?

The crate arrives pre-assembled and can be set up or folded in seconds without extra tools. For routine care, wipe the waterproof Oxford surface clean. The removable mat and machine-washable cover make it easier to clean the parts your pet uses regularly.

• No extra tools are needed for setup.
• The Oxford surface can be wiped down.
• The cover is machine washable, and the cushion is removable.

This crate suits small-dog owners who want a foldable kennel for car trips, outings and indoor resting, along with built-in storage and removable, washable components. The XS option is intended for dogs up to 13 lb (5.9 kg), with fit best judged by measuring the dog as well as considering weight.
