Would be too small IMO. It seems like many of the adult boys can be 24" + at the withers so they could not stand up at all (even hanging their head) in 22" tall crate.

I don't care too much about them standing up, I'm more worried about the 32 deep part.

Mine are 39-1/4" deep and 20-1/4 wide.

Seems to me it would be tough for a dog to jump up into a crate, turn around and get settled when he can't stand up!

You don't need a dog standing up completely in my opinion. My deerskin is 40 deep, 23 wide and probably 24 inch tall holes. Plenty of room for even bigger dogs, I just cant do 32 inches deep.

How wide are you talking, 23 inches is very wide compared to most. FWIW the trailer I have commited to buy is 24x24x40, I could fit a midgit in those holes, lol

My MTCK trailer holes are 28"X33" and 28" tall. I've got dogs from 65lbs to 100lbs and they all ride comfortably. I can peek in through the breezeway and my 100lb bitch will be laying in there on her back enjoying the fan. 32" may or may not be deep enough but I think the width plays a part as well when the holes really aren't that deep.

My Ainley kennels were built 22"W X 24"H by 36"D - I am happy with this size.

My MTCK is 36"D x 22" W x 21"H, works out perfectly and I am very happy with the size.

That's the size holes I have for my American Water Spaniels, except mine are 20" wide. Probably too small for most Labs.

My custom 2-hole Deerskin is 23h x 23w x 34.5L. Works perfect. Male 70# Female 55#. The more room they have to move around the more chance they have of getting hurt while you're running around at a HT or FT. They'll get the exercise when they air out and work.
