Question
We have a 12 week olde english bulldog, he is litter box trained and does go outside I just want to know what kind of crate is best for them the wire or the plastic ones he only sleeps in it the door is always left open.

Answer
Jean,

You can go either way.  A plastic crate will be more private for him.  If he just using it for his sleep time, this would be fine.  A wire crate is more open.  If he is using it during the day along with sleep time, this may be better.

I prefer a wire crate, but this is just my preference.  Either crate would be fine.  Your bully will get use to whatever crate you chose.
