Troubleshooting

Kennel does not hold its shape.

Ensure the #75 steel frame is fully extended and locked into place. Check that all support poles are correctly inserted if applicable.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Gently try to align the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant (like from a pencil lead) to the zipper track. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Water seems to be penetrating the fabric.

Confirm that the water-resistant PVC coating is intact. Minor wear can reduce water resistance. Ensure all seams are properly sealed. This kennel is water-resistant, not fully waterproof.

Pet is chewing through the mesh or fabric.

This kennel is designed for moderate chewers. For persistent or aggressive chewers, consider a more robust crate. Ensure the kennel is appropriately sized for your pet to reduce stress.
