So another crate size question. I got a mutt puppy, and we figured he wouldn't get too huge because his heritage is supposedly half lab, half husky, and we're guessing from his coat he's got Australian Shepherd in him somewhere. Anyway long story short we got him a crate that was 36x27x24 and used a divider. Well he's almost 8 months old now, he's pushing 60 pounds, and he's just now starting to be unable to stand without lowering his head. I'd ideally just like to get the next size up, but I'm not sure if he's going to keep growing and I should get something above his current height or if he may be done growing. He's about 31" at the top of the skull when standing and about 36" long from nose to tail but that's possibly a bit off because he was not too good at being measured and/or I am not good at measuring my giant dog. Right now I just have a wire crate, but that's because it was like $30 on Craigslist, so I'm open to any brands or whatever. Edit: By "too huge" I figured the crate for "up to 70 lbs" would be fine, but I guessed wrong, haha. Mulloy fucked around with this message at 03:49 on Dec 5, 2011 |

So I just got back from two weeks abroad and my dogs were at the kennel they always go to for that time. They normally don't stay longer than four daysn and today I noticed they hasn't touched their food (dry kibble, same brand their entire lives, and I bring it to the kennel). Yesterday I thought I may have filled it more than normal but today it's apparent they haven't been eating. They've consumed water normally and I just went and got them wet food which they went nuts on. I'm going to see if they return to normal tomorrow but if not I'll be going to the vet. In the interim are there any specifics I should look out for to determine if this is something more serious?
