Friends I have a small problem that I hope you can help me with. I recently purchased a bigger crate for my puppy she is now 8 1/2 months at 100 pounds. Her old crate she has had since she was 10 weeks but no more room she lays down and her butt and head touches the crate. I bought her the XXL cage but she doesn't like it at all the first 2 days all she did was whine. I have to pick her up and put her in the crate. Do you know how hard it is to pick up a 100 pound dog who sticks her legs out when you are trying to put her in the cage. I brought her old cage back in the house and she ran and got back into it so quick. I know I was probably wrong for doing this but thats what she loves. And yes I put all kinds of her toys in the old one. She doesn't care. Heeeeeeelllllllpppppppp.....LOL
