I have a morkie. We are going to the beach. Would this be a good confinement area for her on the beach. She is not able to run loose on the beach.

It'll be perfect for her. My chorkies LOVE it. Anytime I pop it up they go right in & don't mind it being zipped up. She'll still be able to see you plus it's water proof so her bowl would be fine in there with her. Her favorite toy & blanket/small bed she'll be in fur baby paradise. Plus the top can partially block the sun. Enjoy & safe travels!

Absolutely! We used ours at home & up at our ranch (while our pup was small). I would suggest having a towel to drape over top as it it netting & sun beating down on top might get pretty warm. Have fun!

I would think it would be perfect if you are not in a high wind area or if you are in an area were you can use posts in the ground so it does not roll off with your Morkie. It has loops for posting. Loose sand would not work for posting it down. Half of the top provides shade and the other is open to full sun. There is a lot of opened mesh for air. Also the mesh is strong. I love mine. My Yorkie sleeps in it every night. His little bed fit nice with all his little toys and his blanket. If necessary I could put food and water bowls in it, as well. I hope this helps you make a decision.

Yes, I think it would work well. It pops up and folds up very easily and takes up very little space. My Shi-pooh likes it.

You would have to stake it down to secure it and keep it from rolling over. I have an apsa lapsa and she can turn it over if it isn't staked down.

If it is just for cooling off it is great. The dog can lie in it, Sit in it, stand in it or play in it. But it just can't actually swim it's not deep enough. We use ours and our dogs enjoy it.

I would definitely think so. I bought this for my pug puppy (who is roughly similar size to a Cairn) for the exact same reason as you and it has been absolutely perfect-- much larger than her crate and enough room for a bed, food and water bowl, wee wee pads and room to walk around/play. I usually line the bottom with wee wee pads. This comes up to about my waist when I'm standing, maybe a little higher. My dog is a big biter/scratcher, but she hasn't been able to claw her way out of this. This has been incredibly helpful while we are at work, and she really likes it. Best part is it is easy to set up and folds completely flat for travel/storage. I would recommend it. I would definitely think so.

If he is hell bent on getting out he will no matter what. My Boxers love it, I can even walk away and they don't try to get out but they like getting baths. It is however better setup for taller breeds so it should work better for you than for me. If he isn't used to baths or afraid of the tub introduce him slowly at his pace and you shouldn't have a problem.

I had an 8 lb. pomeranian and she had room to spare. Put a little blanket or throw pillow in it and they can get comfortable and look around. It liked this particular carriage because my dog is able to look up at me and always see me. I got so many complements walking along the boardwalk. I think you should do yourself a favor and buy it. Enjoy!

I have this and love it. I have a 9 and 4 lb Yorkies and they have plenty of room. We originally bought it for the beach but haven't made it yet. We have used it at the lake. It is tough to get folded back up so I recommend practicing a few times before hand. It gets easier each time

In my opinion it may be too tall for her. It is mainly for small climbers like tree frogs or a few small lizards. You may want to get the 18x18 at least so she can walk around more than climb. Just depends on how she.likes to entertain herself I guess. Other than that it's a great enclosed. The front door is very convenient for cleaning, feeding, and handling your pet of choice.

Potentially, but I'd definitely a) use it successfully before trying it on the beach, as in, repeatedly, to a good result, and b) use it to prevent the unwanted behavior before he actually gets going in it. It abruptly stops my dog from whatever he's doing and makes him come over to investigate the noise, every time. We've been using it for 2 weeks now, and he knows now that noise means bad behavior. Very effective.

Yes, there is plenty of room for a big Rottie. We have one too, and she likes the crate. We have it on a concrete floor in our store warehouse and she can skitter it around, so we secured it with tie straps to secured shelving, and of course use a mat. When it is used outdoors there is no problem at all. In fact, we have put two of our large dogs in there at a time and there is room for both to lie down. The door is secure, but our Labradoodle can open it so we pin it shut too. None of the dogs have managed to go over the sides nor flip it over, even though the Labradoodle has tried.

I bought it for my morkie.. That should answer your question.. Honestly? If they are grown.. They should be out of a crate unless you are transporting them.

Sorry it took me so long to get back. We have just put water in it once and it is still cool.. We have a large in the bottom of our englishbull dogs kennel and its stayed cool this whole time even if our big boxer lays on it. I did put a sheet and light blanket on one side so in the night he gets to cool he can be warm on the other side. This was works awesome for us.

I have mine inside a pen, so she can not only run around in the rabbit hutch, but has more room . I would not leave it in there all day , everyday, make a pen around the outside so it has more room

Yes, our poodle has lots of room in it, it's long enough for sure, your pooch will just lay down if she's too tall. Our Bindi loves to ride in this and it rolls nicely

I feel like this pack does not anchor down very well. My dog is big and it still floats to one side even when it is empty and it does not hold its shape. Other dog packs that I have used have had a much better fit and design. To answer your question- it is my opinion that a skinny dog needs a better skeleton and padding design to their pack. At least that is what I was left wishing for.

It may be a little bit big for her; you may have to hold her under her seat to keep her above the water just right. However, I do think you could definitely enjoy using it with her as it provides a place for her to float and play, and it will give her some much-needed shade. She will also be able to grow into it!

Depends how you define comfortable....what I mean is she probably won't be standing erect as others have mentioned but do crates really need to provide that? They are supposed to provide a safe haven as a den would do. I think it would still work for her as a secondary crate on a lower budget but wouldn't recommend long durations for her.

My puppy was unhappy because she was confined but in the open at the top carriers she was constantly trying to getting out; I was afraid she would jump out and fall on the floor. Your dog or puppy has to be really small.
