I have a Germany Shepard Husky mix that likes to destroy the house when Im not home. In the past she has managed to bend the doors on crates and stick her head out. She was not able to with this one, however, she was able to break the bar above the dead bolt off. Its okay though now I have a place to put my hand in to give her a treat. I dont like that the bottom of this crate is raised. It can not be comfortable on her paws and she destroys every kind of bed I put in it.
