Review on 🐶 Empire Dog Cage by ProSelect by Molly Richards

A bit of history about my dog. She is a rescue retriever who was abandoned a few days before the puppies were born. Because of this, she's drooling like crazy in the car, equating it to the fact that she was abandoned. She is allergic to everything and needs to eat Natural Balance Dry Dog Food, Limited Ingredient Grain Free Diet Formula, Duck and Potatoes, 15 lb bag. If she gets into trash cans, table manure, cat food, or anything else, her skin will crack open. Two trainers later, I learned that skin allergies are very common in dogs with severe separation anxiety. She's on thyroid meds (again, typical of dogs with separation anxiety), clomipramine (generic Clomicalm is 1/3 the price!) and we're trying Bach's Rescue Tincture, 20ml. She's been on Prozac but to no avail. They gave me a heavy metal box, I think it was MidWest. It actually held up pretty well, but it started to rust and she bent the bars in the gate area about an inch and a half. Several times she met me at the door to find the folded box. When I went to inspect the box I ran into a bloody carpet a couple of times because she was trying to run away and cut her gums. My vet has tried some new medications, including a fast-acting sedative, but the cost of the application is a little unbearable. this daily if you already have over $100 in specialty foods/medication. What you need on thundery days! They also suggested typical ways to get rid of anxiety that have already been used. At that point, they turned to the exercise bike. The animal trainer suggested a few changes, but for the most part everything was already done as requested. By now the heavy-duty cage was in rough shape, so I ordered a cage from one of the well-known pet places. One night we went for a test pizza, came home and after 30 minutes the box was destroyed, the bars were bent, the welds were broken, the pointed ends stuck in the box, luckily we only had superficial mouth injuries again and a damn carpet . Let's get back to the old reliable heavy-duty box. Decided to try Bach Rescue Remedy Tincture 20ml after meeting us at the door on arrival one day. I think it's taking the edge off, but I have one rusty box left so I decided to order it. She must have known. The day after she took the plunge, she had another seizure. This time she managed to chip the tooth and split the front of K9's tooth. The delivery from the company was a bit slow, it took about 10 days to arrive. The box is well finished, I don't think it can damage this box but I will definitely keep the review updated. Some notes on the box itself.1. The bars have what appears to be rusty dust in some places where they attach to the box frame. At the moment it seems to be just dust and not real rust.2. Assembly was fairly easy, but the Allen key that came with it was almost useless and broke quickly. I used a drill with an adapter to speed up assembly with a hex wrench.3. I think the door locks could be improved. If there's a weak link in the box, I think it's that. This is a fairly simple slide lock, the diameter of the locking post rod is smaller than the rods of the drawer itself.4. The crotch is here, but the bottom is a tighter mesh of bars. One of the trainers recommended making Kongsicles for the dog, their food frozen in Kong. Pieces of food fall through the slots to the bottom of the box. On the other hand, she doesn't drool all day because of the slate floor, so she doesn't stink so easily. Overall I am very happy with the box. Don't fall for eBay fakes. You can see the difference in build quality if you look closely at the photos! It's even a somewhat attractive box!
