German Shepherds?

Question: What size of outdoor kennel should I buy for my German Shepherd? He loves sitting in the garden, even when it is raining and hardly comes in the house. Many places selling kennels give sizes in medium / large / extra large. The large is suggested for Labradors and extra large for Great Danes. P.S. The kennel will only be used during day time so I don't need larger kennels for heaters etc.. Thanks for advice..

Answer: It may depend on the shepherd--most shepherds only reach 70-80 pounds, about the size of a large lab, but they can get much larger. We had one once that stood waist-high and weighed about 150 pounds (no fat!), though. If you know what the parents were like, you can base your decision on that, but I'd get the extra large. If nothing else, I rather have a cage that's a little too big than one that's too small.
