Small Framed Door Kennel - Dakota 283 G3 - Blue

Dakota 283 was founded in 2013 with a simple vision: to bring our military molding experience to create unparalleled pet protection for dogs and enhance the adventure of the tailgate lifestyle. Our top-of-line dog kennels and pet products are built to stand the test of time and protect your beloved pet.

The G3 is the kennel for ultimate pet protection. It is created in one solid piece to hold up on all the adventures you and your dogs take, with our ultra-secure lock for peace of mind. Other features include molded and assembled in the USA construction, easy-grip handles, large ventilation holes, and an easy-to-clean drain hole.

The Dakota T1 Kennel has a lower profile than our standard kennels and is designed to easily fit in the back of a pick up under a Tonneau cover. This kennel is significantly lighter than the original Kennebec model and features a rear-positioned easy-grip handle for easy lifting. It is molded in one solid piece and available in 2 colors.

The D283 Hero Kennel is constructed of military grade materials developed and tested in the harshest environments. This kennel is perfect for those that have aggressive dogs or those who are just looking for an additional layer of security. With its triple door locking capability, stainless steel door, and components that provide the ultimate in Unparalleled Pet Performance, it is astounding for military, police, or hunting dogs.

The Kennebec Kennel is the original tough and long-lasting dog kennel created by Dakota 283. These durable crates are manufactured using the same process used to make industrial-strength military cases. The walls are tough and rugged to absorb impact while the corners remain virtually impervious to cracking, crushing, and other damage.

When choosing the right size kennel, measure your dog standing - nose to tail, and from the floor to the top of their ears. Add 2-6 inches to the length depending on breed size. The clearance above the dog's ears only needs to be about an inch.

Crate training is an important time for puppies, so Dakota 283 offers Forever Inserts that allow you to adjust the interior size of the kennel until the dog grows into it, rather than buying smaller kennels and sizing up.

Our kennels come in a variety of sizes, from the Small G3 to the X-Large G3, as well as the T1 and Hero models. All feature molded and USA-assembled construction, easy-grip handles, large ventilation holes, easy-to-clean drain holes, and Dakota Guard - our environmentally and food-grade safe additive to protect your pet's health and safety.
