Due to the fact that Ruff Land Performance Kennels does not have personal knowledge of your pet we prefer not to recommend sizes of kennels. We feel consulting with your trainer or vet would give you the best results for sizing. Thank you for your understanding.
Ruff FLEX Technology
The walls, top and floor on Ruff Land™ Kennels also have built-in flexibility which absorbs energy that would otherwise be transferred to your dog. This is where the “stiff”, two-walled plastic kennels, which claim to be safer, fail. They may not break, but when your dog hits the side of the kennel, there is no give like there is with a Ruff Land™.
StackRight™ Design
The tops and bottoms of Ruff Land™ kennels all feature form-fit nesting that allows the kennels to fit together, making them stackable.
SureVent™ Tapered Wall Design
The sidewalls on all Ruff Land™ kennels feature a series of vent holes. These vent holes ensure proper air circulation for your dog. Ruff Land™ took this one step further by tapering the side walls so that the vent holes will never get plugged, even if you slide the kennel up against a wall or some other flat sided object.
UpSide™ Raised Floor Interior
The interior floor in a Ruff Land™ kennel is raised so that debris and liquids that fall or spill off to the side are channeled away from your dog. This UpSide™ raised floor design also creates some flex for a built-in cushioning effect for your dog as it rides in your truck.
2-Way Door
They are ambidextrous and can be adjusted to swing either way.
No Bite Grid Pattern Design
They feature a no-bite grid pattern that precludes dogs from chewing.
Rattle-Less
They will not rattle as much (if you’ve owned other kennels you know just how annoying this can be).
SlantBack™ SUV-Friendly Design
Select Ruff Land™ kennels feature a SlantBack™ design, an angled back end that fits perfectly up against the canted second seat on most SUVs.

Larry –
I believe the intermediate size kennel is ideal for my two retrievers based on their current crates that we use in our home. My only question is what are the dimensions of the door? My older dog is fine in a small kennel but has trouble working his way through a small door. I’m most interested in the size of the frame around the door and the overall dimensions of the door within the dimensions of the front of the kennel (i.e. 20″ wide x 22″ high). Any details you can provide on the exact dimensions of the door within the intermediate kennel would be appreciated.
