I need a new, larger crate to take to classes and seminars.
I love the idea of how lightweight and storable soft crates are, but I have worries about how much protection they offer from other dogs.
I have been in classes with out-of-control dogs that were quite aggressive. Now that I'm planning on doing more dog events I think maybe I should go for a wire or plastic crate.
Annie's never tried to rush another dog or get out of the crate, so I'm mostly worried about other dogs trying to get at her.
What are your experiences? Is the physical barrier of a soft crate enough to deter doggies behaving badly?
Thanks
