My American Akita has been able to break out of every single crate we’ve tried until I purchased the high anxiety one from Impact dog crate! It has been a life saver. I would 100% recommend to anyone experiencing the same issue. I ordered the XL+ and it was the perfect fit for big boy.

    Amazing!

    Honestly this is a heavy duty, tactical kennel. It will keep our dog so safe and easy to travel. Bigger than expected. We are so happy with our purchase.

    This is an Amazing Crate!

    Got this for my Houdini of a husky, and he has calmed down a ton to the point that he just lays in it even when I’m home. Excellent build quality and top notch precision on all the metalwork. Would absolutely recommend! Easy set up, and collapse.

    Impressed!

    This crate is amazing! Very easy to set up. You literally take it out of the box, pop it up, secure the front and back with the heavy-duty, easy to use screws to the sides and bam! There you go. There are support rails that go on each side to stabilize the sides and my goodness it is so easy to do! We got the XL for our German Shepherd and we don’t have to worry about a thing.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this crate is exceptionally sturdy and effective for dogs with separation anxiety and escape tendencies. Many reviews mention dogs who previously destroyed wire crates or broke out repeatedly now remain safely contained. Users report their anxious dogs appear calmer and often willingly enter the crate, with some even using it as a comfort space during storms. Common feedback includes assembly being challenging and time-consuming, typically requiring two people and several hours. While customers note the high price point, most consider it worthwhile given the peace of mind and their dogs' safety. The crate's solid construction prevents self-injury that occurred with traditional wire crates.

    The quality of this crate is outstanding. The high anxiety model worked exceptionally well for us. Our German Shepherd pup did not like being confined in a wire crate even for short periods. He’s perfect you calm and quiet in the Impact Crate, thank you!!!

    Will Actually Last A Lifetime

    Got this thing three years ago for my mix breed (shar pei x catahoula hound). He’s approx 72lbs lean now, he was a little over 80lbs when we first got it. Super high anxiety and huge focus on getting OUT meaning I’ve tried dozens of options before that have survived from sometimes 2 uses to maybe 6 months maximum. This is the only option that continues to hold against my titan all these years and it’s got no signs of quitting - despite how hard my pup tries otherwise! Followed the instructions and built it with a second person just to make sure everything was right. I can’t count how many times I used it these last three years and there is zero compromise in the structural integrity of this crate. Easy to wipe down to clean. Easy for me to move around my home but it stays put when my dog is in it. Best investment for my pup’s long term security at home.

    Wow

    This brand was recommended to me by my boss who has one for her rescue dog. I bought it after my Chihuahua ripped through his first nylon kennel and then started pooping and peeing from anxiety in his plastic kennel. I was skeptical at first because how can a metal crate make that much of an impact on dogs? But wow I am impressed, my dog has stopped whining, braking and scratching, he no longer feels anxious about being in a kennel and will go in there willingly to chill out! He loves his impact crate, I was very scared that he would still hate it but as soon as it was built he was happy! I feel like I have a totally new dog, he isn't stressed about us leaving our home anymore and is very happy for us to be back 😭

Frequently asked questions

What benefits does the High Anxiety Crate offer for escape artists, or dogs with high anxiety?

The sturdy construction and heavy-duty latches make the crate escape-proof and bite-proof, helping to contain even the most talented escape artists. Furthermore, the crate offers additional privacy for dogs, which can help alleviate anxiety. The design also appears to be calming for dogs, providing them with a dark and enclosed space where they can feel comfortable.

Generally, if the Crate is rattling, it's because the rubber stopper on the inside of the Door has fallen off. This is a similar kind of stopper you find on cabinet doors. If this happens, just contact us and we'll replace it free of charge. Sometimes there may be a bit of a rattle between the Side Walls and Front Frame - that can be avoided with our IATA Brackets.
