Our verdict

A sensible hard kennel for flying or driving with a medium dog, with two doors and a vented shell. Dogs past the weight limit need one of the larger sizes in the range.

Overview

Airline trips and car back seats are the settings this Pet Lodge kennel is built for, with a hard plastic shell, a wire window, a vented back and two doors. A handle on top lets one person carry it to the car or the check-in counter.

Air transport compliance is the reason to buy, since the kennel is listed as meeting International Air Transport Association requirements. Two doors make loading easier in tight spots like a car. Confirm the medium suits your dog's length and height before booking a flight.

Who it's for

Travelers checking a medium dog on a flight or carrying one in the car get a closed, ventilated kennel. Owners of dogs past the weight limit should size up, and those wanting full visibility at home should choose a wire crate.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Listed as meeting airline transport rules
  • Two doors for front or side loading
  • Wire window and vented back for airflow
  • Plastic shell is easy to clean
Cons
  • Crate weight not listed
  • No divider or tray mentioned
  • Enclosed shell limits the view out
  • Medium size caps the dog's weight

Performance notes

Airflow depends on the wire window and the vented back, since the rest of the shell is closed plastic. Heavy-duty plastic gives the kennel its rigidity and makes cleanup a wipe-down job. Comfort on a flight depends on the dog standing and turning inside, so check its height and length against the kennel first.
