I spent a near fortune on my collapsable crate when I had Kersey and Graham in agility, and I used it for Boone when I traveled to Austin when he was a young pup and he absolutely shreaded it. We came back to the hotel room and he was at the window wagging his tail. He tore the front off and the sides. We were only gone for about 1/2 hour and it was in about 200 pieces.
