DEN is a dog crate built as a piece of furniture. The wooden frame and slatted sides give a dog the enclosed space they settle in, while the flat top works as a genuine side table - a lamp, a plant, a stack of books. It replaces a wire crate that no living room has ever been improved by having in it.
Dogs use crates as dens rather than cages when the crate is somewhere they choose to go, and a crate that sits properly in a room instead of being hidden in a utility corner gets used far more. The slats give ventilation and sightlines out, which matters a great deal for a dog that wants to keep an eye on the household while it rests.
Four size and finish options cover small through to larger breeds. Assembly is required. Introduce a dog to a crate gradually with the door open and never use it as punishment. Do not leave a dog crated for extended periods, remove collars and tags that could catch on slats, and check regularly for chew damage on a determined chewer.
