If your dog is traveling internationally the airline NOW requires for the safety of your dog a full 2-3" of extra head room above your dog's head or tip of ears (in pointy eared dogs).  If you have an existing 700 size kennel that your dog is acclimated to and fits your dog but lacks the extra head room required, the 700Plus Kennel expansion kits are the perfect accessory. They easily modify your 700 Giant dog kennels into airline compliant. Simply add the metal rails in between the top and bottom and install the new bigger steel door and you are all set.

The kit is 100% hand installed, no tools needed or required. (unless you determine the extra door hardware will be needed, then 4 holes will need to be drilled with drill bit provided in kit, Electric Screwdriver drill is also available at a small additional cost) Simply Connect the corner rails to straight rails to create a horseshoe shape then set the rails in between the top and bottom of the kennel. Then install the door filler rail pieces and install your existing door, then thread the provided 6" bolts through the existing kennel bolt holes and secure with the reinforced Metal Thumb Nuts (all provided in the kit). That is it... as easy as putting together the original kennel and your kennel is now taller and will now provide the extra head room required by your airline.

ALL Vents and slots are redesigned to follow IATA 2024 new requirements (1x1 inch or smaller for international flights)
