What are the advantages of a Homestretch crate?
The advantages are numerous. Safety Occasionally stories are heard of a dog getting his collar caught in the metal wire of either a plastic or metal cage. Oftentimes the result is death. To prevent this, they must often go without collar. This is definitely not safe because the animal may charge or spook when the door is opened and be lost without any identification. Because Homestretch crates do not have cage-style metal, it is nearly impossible for a collar or tag to get caught. Back to Top The Homestretch crate also tends to stay cooler in summer. They don’t heat up in the sun like metal or plastic crates. They allow a breeze to flow easily through them. The Solar Shield or “Weather Wrap” is available to further insulate the crates from the sun on hot days. However, it should always be remembered not to put a confined animal in a hot place, whether on a leash or in any kind if crate. The Homestretch crate also keeps many annoying or even dangerous bugs outside with your dog inside.
