Default Custom Dog crate

For those looking for a dog crate I found a guy in Calgary who will make what you want. I looked all over and only found guys on the States with ridiculous shipping costs. His name is Tim and he is at nikanda1@telus.net

Gents. I posted for the guy to help him out. Lost his job and does these out of his garage. Former machinist.

This is all aluminum and is 22'W x 35"W x 28" H and fits my GWP well. He went right in and now I know he'll stay in there.

Guy's name is Tim. I can PM his Phone number in Calgary.

Thanks for the tip Scott. Over the years, I have had many requests for custom crates, but I'm a wood butcher not metal or plastic. I wonder if his crates are allowed on airlines? That is a big factor sometimes.

Default Not Sure About Airlines

Not what I was worried about but I see no reason. Send him a note.

I'm currently in the market for a dog box.....

What kind of price range are we looking at?

Default Depends What You Want

The box I bought was $500 all in but had locking latch and unpainted. He can pretty much do what you want. These are custom so will all be different. He has one on Kijiji for $850 as it is much larger and is powder coated and has fancy hinges and locks. Email him folks. I just bought it and offered to post here to help him out. Cheers.
