    Had to return the first one delivered. Turn around less than a week. Replacement fit and finish first class. Solid! Gun Dog guided me through the process. Can't say thank you enough for their support. Great company.
    Pros
    • Well built. First class product.
    Cons
    • None

    lightweight and durable
    July 22, 2024
    Fits perfect in the back of a F150 6' bed with a topper and decked draw system. I dont think I would ever use the Lock and Key system on it but the doors are nice and rigid as well.

    Disappointed!!!
    December 16, 2023
    Thrilled with my Dakota kennel except the door won't lock!! Disappointed.
    Having spent over $400 the bolt doesn't extend far enough into the strike plate to
    allow the key to turn the lock. Hopefully Dakota will contact me with a solution.

    Super Crate!
    November 24, 2023
    For the traveling wing shooter this crate is terrific. It's very solid and strong but not unbearable to carry into the hotel. Great piece of mind to know my dog is safe behind me in the jeep. No flimsy gate or holes to poke through. Just a solid metal latch. Simple and strong. I have a 30lb American Brittany and a medium is perfect.
    Pros
    • Strong frame
    • Solid metal gate
    • Nice handle to carry
    Cons
    • None

    Love it
    June 2, 2022
    Love the handle. Much lighter and easier to move around than the Gunner. Our 58 pound lqb fits great in the medium. Great kennel. Would definitely buy another one
    Pros
    • Handle
    • Lighter than a gunner
    • Great construction
    Cons
    • Wish the blue color was in stock but love the color we got

    Great kennel
    May 27, 2022
    Very high quality and comfy for the bird pups!! As always a pleasure doing business with Dun Dog Supply.
    Pros
    • Squared not oddly shaped for ease of fitting in trucks or suv. Lockable door sturdy and well made constructions.
    Cons
    • None so far.

    I really like the Dakota 283. After listening to Tyler Webster podcast and hearing them as the one of the sponsors I wanted to try this kennel out.
    I also have the Ruffland Kennel and this Dakota 283 kennel is such a better product. I really like the door and the fact it has a lock on it as well.

    Pros
    • Made great, looks great, Locking door, no having to squeeze the latch like on the Ruffland.
    Cons
    • Not many other than it is taller than the ruffland so it sticks up higher than the bed of my truck and I cant close bed cover.

    This crate is heavy duty and everything fits and works well. Hardware and materials exude quality. But perhaps most importantly, my one year old (today :) Black Lab, HARO, likes it! I highly recommend.

    Beautiful Crate
    January 11, 2022
    Ordered our new crate and 7 days later it arrived. What a beautiful crate it is. Well built and it is better than I could have ever imagined. Thank you Dakota 283 for restoring my faith in the manufacturing world and it is American Made.
    Pros
    • Just a well made crate. With quality control checking before it leaves the factory.
    Cons
    • Can't find anything wrong.

    Great Kennel!

    We decided to buy this xl kennel for our 2 beagles. We love the sturdiness, durability, and easy to clean benefits this kennel offers. The xl is large enough for both our dogs to lay side by side and tall enough for them to sit or move if they need to.

    2nd Dakota Kennel
    July 23, 2021
    Was looking for a good quality kennel without buying the mercedes. Landed on the Dakota 283.

    Bought a medium and a large. Very happy with the quality. The door hardware seems top notch. Latch seems very solid.

    If your looking at kennels the Dakota is the mid price option. I am very happy with the purchases.

    It will be a very very long time before I need a new one. I would definitely recommend this kennel. In my opinion spend a little more (cry once) the first time and you will be done for a long time.
