What size dog crate should i get?
I have a new Labrador puppy and i want to crate train her. i want to buy a crate that will fit her when she is fully grown. I was going to buy a crate with these dimensions. L,48" W,30" H,32". is this too big? we also want to be able to fit it in our car.
Get dividers for the crate so, as your pup grows, you can increase the size of the crate to accomodate the size of your growing puppy!
They also have collapsable ones for easy transportation use!
For my pup I just took my mother’s old large dog crate off of her and blocked off the back part of the crate with blankets then made more room as the pup grew.
Cheap of me yes, but it still worked the same!

Depends on how big her parents are. Many Labs do fine in a 36′ plastic crate. Do block off most of it at first.

I agree, get one that will fit her full size when grown but with deviders, Much cheaper than buying several as she grows. A average size lab should be ok in that size.
