How to Size Dog Crates for Retail Buyers

What wholesale buyers should know

Dog crate sizing affects customer satisfaction, return rate and accessory attachment. Retailers should stock crates by pet length, standing height and use case rather than by breed name only.

• Measure nose-to-tail base length and standing height.
• Add enough room for turning and natural posture.
• Pair each crate with a mat, divider and travel bowl.
• Use clear size charts on product pages and shelf labels.
