Somerzby Dog Crate Covers

High-quality dog crate covers are no longer just crate accessories; they’re essential tools for promoting your dog’s mental and emotional well-being.

Like their wild ancestors who sought refuge in dark dens, modern dogs still crave a quiet, secure space to relax and de-stress. Dog crate covers create a den-like atmosphere, providing a safe place to sleep and reducing anxiety.

Why Do I Need A Dog Crate Cover?

Dog crate covers have become indispensable tools for enhancing your pet’s well-being, both at home and on the go. At Somerzby, we understand the importance of providing your furry friend with the perfect sanctuary. Here’s why investing in our high-quality covers is crucial for your furry friend’s happiness and comfort.

Creating a Den-Like Retreat

In the wild, dogs spend many hours (often more than 12 hours a day) resting in dark quiet dens. This is true for puppies and adult dogs. This need for a dark quiet resting place is still hard-wired into your dog’s brain even after many generations of domestication.

Our dog crate covers replicate the feeling of a den, offering a tranquil environment where your pet can unwind and feel secure. Research shows that creating such a space reduces anxiety and promotes better sleep quality for dogs, contributing to their overall well-being.

This can be particularly beneficial for:

  • Helping sleep through the night.
  • Allowing dogs to retreat away from things that cause them anxiety including visitors in your home, noisy children, other animals, fireworks, or storms.
  • Keeping your pet safe in the car and the driver free from distraction when travelling with your dogs on holiday or vet visits.
  • Providing shelter for dogs that need to be temporarily isolated or prevented from running (e.g. after surgery)

Toilet Training

For successful toilet training, the RSPCA advocates for the use of covered dog crates, recommending them as effective tools for both adult dogs and puppies alike.

Dogs naturally avoid soiling their dens, making a covered crate an ideal space to instil this instinctual behaviour. By providing a safe and secure den environment, covered crates motivate puppies to wait until they are taken outside for toilet breaks. It’s crucial to gradually increase the time spent in the crate, as bladder control develops over time.

With patience and consistency, toilet training with a covered crate becomes a seamless process, promoting positive habits and reinforcing your pet’s training journey.

Weather Protection

Dog crate covers offer invaluable weather protection, ensuring your furry friend remains comfortable in any environment.

Somerzby crate covers are waterproof, offering protection from unexpected rain fall. Whether you’re camping, traveling or simply spending time outdoors, covers offer peace of mind that your dog will stay dry whatever the weather.

Crate covers also provide an extra layer of insulation to keep your pet warm and cosy overnight. As temperatures drop, the cover acts as a barrier, retaining heat within the crate and shielding your pet from chilly winds.

Why are Somerzby Crate Covers So Good?

Somerzby crate covers are available in three sizes:

Our crate covers are high quality, made of heavy-duty synthetic canvas. We have chosen a superior grade of synthetic canvas because it’s more waterproof and resistant to rot than ordinary canvas. This tough material is also scratch and tear resistant and can absorb all the punishment your dogs can throw at it.

Our crate covers are loaded with great features including:

  • Two windows with fly and mosquito proof mesh (on the long sides), offering ventilation and light
  • A front and side flap that can roll up, allowing you to choose which way you face the crate in your home
  • Heavy duty, waterproof synthetic canvas construction, allowing use outdoors
  • Rugged double stitching, ensuring a long life for mesh panels and other seams
  • A colour choice of blue, grey or camo

Please note Somerzby crate covers are only available to purchase with a Somerzby crate and are not sold separately.

    Hi there
    we bought a smoerzby kennel. can we also buy a crate cover? (but not a crate as we already have one)
    also is this waterproof such that we can leave the dog outside in the crate with this on the crate?
    thanks
