Has anyone built a indoor dog crate? I need something alittle more custom for my service dog, I guess more "space saving". He is almost 9 months old and 65lbs, but knows how to get small. I have a wire crate in living room, but it's really bulky. I need a crate for him in my bedroom.

Here are some designs that might be a good starting point.

For sizing purposes i can understand being small. My miniatureschnauzer curls up in a ball to sleep most times. For real sizing, the space should be tall enough for him to sit so that he can move around and long enough for him to extend from a sit to laying down.

Etsy has more examples.

I bought a white wood one from a retailer online. It looks sooo much better than the wire crate. The one I bought did not come with a bottom. instead it has a plastic tray that can be removed to clean.
It also has/had wooden dowels for the "windows" that the dog ate through. When I repaired it the 2nd time, I replaced the wood dowels with aluminum ones.

Good luck and I look forward to seeing some photos.
