I was thinking tonight Nina.  My three year old was standing near Lily and she's 37 1/2 inches as of last week.  So I stand the two of them side by side and my daughter looks like she is about an inch taller.  I think the 35" might work.  I found one in stock at Petco that I could take Lily to try out tomorrow.  I'll let you know how it works out.

Don't mind how bad this pic is, lol.  But it kind of shows the height.

Does anyone know where you can get the height extender bars for the crates ?

Thanks

I also need a crate for my mastiff.  He is 250lbs and 51.5 inches long.  Hubby is navy and up for orders and they are trying to send us overseas so need to be prepared.  Anything that big.  I just found a crate on petaroo that was 41.5 x 29.25 x 31.  That is not big enough after measuring my dog.  Anyone know of any crates that big?

Well....

I investigated this very thoroughly and in the end got a custom crate made in the UK (from wood) and flew it out to Miami and brought day-z back in that.

There are no off the shelf crates available for our big babies, so it is a case of find someone who can make it to IATA  spec.

Is possible though, and they are much more comfortable for the dog.

Good luck
