Hi, basically as the topic says what crate size do I need. I am getting a labrador bitch from a working line, Mum and Dad are both small. I would like the cage to fit her when she is fully grown, not just when she is a pup. I have seen some on ebay and looking through previous posts other people have them and say they are good. Would you recommend a 36", 42" or a 48"? Thanks Simon.

I have a 48" crate but would say that a 42" would be more than enough.

My fully grown lab is in a 42 inch crate which is ample for him and he is a well built boy. Good luck with your pup. Katrina

I have just ordered Jack a 36in crate from ebay. I did have a larger one but he would not settle in it. Your lab should have just enough room to stand up, turn around and curl up. Last edited by Alyson69 on Tue Jun 12, 2007 5:29 pm; edited 1 time in total
