I have the largest size of the Canine Camper and it works beautifully! We use it as a safe haven for our two dogs (one medium [think beagle size], one large [think Greyhound size]) when we stay in others' homes. It's quick and easy to set up, has a great carrying case with a handle, and creates plenty of room for a large dog to stand and stretch out. Although we wouldn't crate both of them in it for long periods of time, it's a great place for them to nap together when they're already worn out or stressed out after a car trip! I highly recommend this one! One possible con: the largest one is still pretty large, even when folded up. It becomes completely flat, but it's an enormous rectangle! It's hard to fit into the trunk or back seat of my two-door Honda Accord, but would fit fine in a larger vehicle.
Thanks for the great review of the Canine Camper, Katie!
