Rustic brown grain gives this kennel a farmhouse look that pairs with wood floors and older furniture. Measuring 31.5-in by 21.5-in by 22.5-in, it takes the footprint of a small chest rather than a crate, and the door slides on its rail so no floor space is lost to a swing arc in an apartment. Locking knobs adjust to pull the panel tight. Metal side slats run top to bottom for ventilation and sightlines. Thick boards joined by a metal frame carry the 42.5-lb build, and the finished surface handles hair and spills without special cleaners.
