Last summer my mom proudly came over to my house showing off the Sport Pet pop open kennel she bought for her dog, Molly. For the record — and in a moment you’ll see why this is worth mentioning — Molly is a four and a half pound Yorkshire Terrier.
So anyway, my mom was excited about the Sport Pet pop open kennel, because it’s a portable mesh & nylon kennel that quickly pops open, then folds flat when not in use. I doubt the thing weighs more than a pound, so it’s very easy to toss around or put away for storage. Her intention was to use it for Molly when she was at my house and needed to be crated (Molly had and still has issues with being housebroken, so understandably I didn’t want her to have free run of my house), or when they were out somewhere and Molly needed a quiet place to retreat to.
Here’s why I felt it was worth mentioning that Molly is a four and a half pound Yorkshire terrier with the strength of, oh I don’t know, a hamster:
You’re looking at a hole that was clawed and/or chewed into the bottom corner of the Sport Pet pop open kennel. I think it’s ridiculous that a kennel advertised to safely crate dogs up to 20 lbs. or more wasn’t able to stand up to a four and a half pound toy breed dog for more than a half an hour.
And for the record, I fully intend on writing to Sport Pet to see what kind of guarantee they offer on the product, and if they’ll be willing to refund or replace it.

um, lame.
It’s a nice idea. Probably would be better if they reinforced it, like nylon+mesh+nylon so that even if they scratched or bit at it, it would be more resistant to tearing.
Wouldn’t do a darn thing for my puppy though. She’d just roll the thing around the house! lol
