Designer Dog Crates For Your Four Legged Friend

By Amanda Gray


People love their dogs like they love their children, unconditionally. Which is why dog lovers all over will be pleased to learn about designer dog crates. No longer does your pet have to be relegated to a metal cage. Thanks to the creativity and ingenuity of dog loving designers, the doggie crate has evolved into a mini designer condo.

Some are designed to look like sleek modern end tables. Guests who do not see the doggie inside might just set down their coffee and think what a lovely table and nothing more. They will be surprised when they hear a bark or restful dog snoring coming out of what they thought was an end table.

Traditional designs are also available in quality woods like oak and mahogany. The natural wood can be stained any color you like. If you have a lot of beige and warm tones, there is a nice espresso finish. For rooms with cooler tones you can order a black or a grey stained crate. It will blend right into the rest of the furniture.

For dog lovers with a lot of white in their home decor, there are elegant designs with white finishes. It is not easy to blend into a predominately white color scheme, but you can find a design to do just that. Your carpet will stay clean as your favorite pet rests nearby in his white doggie condo.

There are designs to fit any room in the house. One for the bedroom in case your pet likes to be near his owner, and one for the living room so your dog can always feel included. The crates designed for the entry are functional and attractive. These are especially imaginative and make for a tasteful and functional entrance with a matching mirror and places to hang your coat.

There are also designs available in soft canvas over a metal or hard plastic structure. With roll up doors and window openings, you can put down the shades and allow the pet quiet time needed for a nap or overnight sleep. These designs will not be mistaken for furniture, but they are a lot more attractive than a metal cage.

Large breed dogs have not been forgotten in this trend. The larger crates are more expensive but just as attractive. These ones are designed to accommodate a large animal entering and exiting the crate. Your dog will be most comfortable. Pet owners of the larger breeds appreciate that their 110 pound pooch needs same amount of tender loving care as a small lap dog.

If you have two pets, you can have side by side crates designed an built into the wall under a shelving unit. There are do it yourself designs for placing a regular crate under an attractive table and adding draping to disguise the metal. It is clear that designer crates are only limited by your budget and your imagination. Whichever design you choose, your pet will be happy, warm and thankful to be near its owner.
