Has anyone had luck placing the crate into a LARGER crate pan, whereas to prevent the dog from getting to the edges of it?

No, my boy does not fuss with the pan. They would then be laying in the wire bottom, if I am understanding what you are asking.

Pat - I have one of those crates and yes, they will work on it. Also, if you cut a thin piece of plywood and place it under the pan, it is so much more comfortable for the dog. I know cause I climbed in to clean and could feel the metal, so I did that to mine and it was smooth! Also keeps the pan from cracking!

I have 4 sides and have configured them into a square to create a crate/pen (without a roof). If you describe how you plan to configure it and what your plan for it's use it that would be helpful, plus how big is your dog and how determined and strong is it?

Yes. If you look closely at the photo you'll see how the horizontal rods on the door are bent and loop around the vertical rod on the crate. I removed the door with a flat-head screw driver by expanding the 5 metal rods on the door that loop around the metal rods on the frame of the crate. You will only have to increase the gap at the end of the loop a very tiny bit to get the door off. If done carefully it will not ruin anything and the door can be reused if you use pliers to squeeze the loops back to their original position

I have a pitbull/lab in mine and she has not escaped, where she has in other crates. We did use a chain and hook on the doors to be on the safe side, but so far (1 year) she has not escaped. Worked great for us.

It will be too big for the crate I would think and it won't fit in well because if its round. Lookat www.whippetwear.com/cocoon/ i believe there's is rectangle. More expensive though...

I got one and it was the larger and would not fit my crate which is 24" as well. I was not happy! The pan itself is VERY nice. Much better than the stock one that needs replaced.

I wouldn't recommend this one for that the space is only about 3/4 inch, on the largest, so it may be very difficult to get the soft food out if you have a very big dog.

The Pet Mate door isn't the same width all the way down. So unless the Nylabone crate is constructed the same way, there's no chance it will.

HI--I checked my dog's crate--there is a larger grid on the bottom--no problem yet with pan sliding. I bought her the mat for it, too, which she loves. It's about 2 in thick, foam covered with a nice fuzzy material, paid about 26 bucks for it My dog weighs 35 lb. She can turn around in it--you know how they do before they lay down. If I were you I would get the next larger size for your dog. I think my gal feels more secure in her crate. Awaiting some T-storms to see if she will go in it then.

nope....i think you should look for another one if u need hooks to secure and the pan is kind of big if u plan to put it in the cage....i think this pan is designed for outside for them run around....

I don't think the divider has an opening but the crate does have 2 doors so maybe you could make it work.

Currently, I have the 36" crate for my GSMD pup. He's only about 25 pounds right now. The crate seems to be ok, for now, however it does not hold a firm shape; it will bend and move if nudged, but it has never collapsed. The edges of the create are held together by metal clips. It does the job, but I wouldn't buy it again.

I have an ex large and my pit bull who is considerably shorter scrapes the top with his back sometimes. Sadly I don't think this pet door will be big enough.

The crate has a thick, tough plastic pan. I cannot imagine it failing during the life of our crate. We put a cushion in ours and our buddy enjoys napping in it. The door is always open unless we are going away.

I have the LARGE crate, and my two pugs hang out in there together with a little moving room. There's also a pillow and blanket on top of the cushion pad I ordered for the bottom of the crate and a couple of their stuffed toys. I've never seen a separator that makes it possible to split the crate and I've owned three that I changed out for different reasons. I think you'd be better off ordering a smaller size carrier and kenneling the puppy in there first and order the size you'll eventually need. We still use our carriers to take them to the vet.

I put my box about 6-8 inches away from the wall with the opening facing the wall. Kitties never had trouble getting in and I don't think a golden retriever could wedge his way in there. That said, if you feel your dog could take the whole top off, it's not snapped on in any way, it kind of just "sets" into place, so it's possible. Great litter box, I would give it a shot. Most people just think it's a houseplant... Maybe your doggie will too!
