From its reinforced construction to its escape-resistant door system, every component is purpose-built for dogs that demand the highest level of containment.
FRAME
Strength starts at the core. The fully welded internal frame creates an exceptionally rigid foundation that resists twisting, flexing, and repeated escape attempts.
STRENGTH
Reinforced aircraft-grade aluminum panels provide exceptional durability without the weight of steel, creating a crate that's strong enough for even the most determined dogs.
VENTILATION
Rounded ½-inch ventilation openings promote airflow from every angle while maintaining the security your dog needs. The smooth edges help protect your dog while creating a comfortable, well-ventilated environment.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Every detail is purposefully engineered to create a crate that's as refined as it is rugged. From the industrial recessed handle to stackable corners and precision construction that minimizes vibration, it's built to perform for years to come.
SECURITY
For dogs that chew, push, and test every weak point, the door is often the first place to fail. That's why ours is engineered differently. A lockable slam latch, dual butterfly latches, solid aluminum bars, and integrated Chew Guards work together to create a secure, bite-resistant door built for lasting strength and peace of mind.
Everything you need to know about sizing, travel, warranties, and choosing the right crate for your dog.
Yes. Our Separation Anxiety Crate is specifically designed for dogs that chew, bend, and escape from traditional wire, plastic, and wooden crates. Built with an internal welded aluminum frame, reinforced panels, and a bite-resistant door, it provides exceptional strength, durability, and security for even the most determined dogs. For extreme escape artists, we also recommend adding a Door Guard for additional protection.
A crate alone won't cure separation anxiety, but it can provide the safe, secure environment many anxious dogs need during crate training and behavior modification. By helping prevent escapes and destructive behavior, it also gives owners greater peace of mind while working through their dog's anxiety.
Your dog should be able to stand comfortably, turn around, and lie down naturally inside the crate. Use our Size Guide to compare your dog's height with our recommendations. If you're between sizes or need assistance, our team is happy to help you find the best fit.
Yes. Every Separation Anxiety Crate arrives fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box. No tools or assembly required.
Yes. Our Separation Anxiety Crate is built on the same platform as our award-winning Stationary Crate, the first metal dog crate to earn a 5-Star Crash Test Rating from the Center for Pet Safety.
Yes. Every Rock Creek Crate is backed by our 10-Year Warranty, giving you confidence that your investment is built to last.

"Crate is not as heavy that I thought it would be . . . But, a good crate for my dog. . She can feel safe and secure in the crate . . . . Smallest size crate . . And the right size for her . . . . And Sturdy. . My dog is happy with it. . . . Was shipped in good time and came right to my door . ."
"Love, love, love Rock Creek crates. They are beautifully crafted, solidly built, quiet, and crash test rated. The Separation Anxiety crate is fabulous. Chew proof and safe. And the door guard is removable as anxiety improves. Highly recommend!"
"Our dog needs to be crated when we leave and when we have guests. The wire crates made his anxiety worse and were dangerous. He is more relaxed in the den like atmosphere of this crate and I am more relaxed knowing he won't escape or injure himself. I was worried about the interior frame being a place for him to chew. But we are over a month in and he hasn't damaged anything on the crate. The first crate we ordered was damaged during shipping. The company had a wonderful small business feel and its customer service was excellent when we called about the damage. We had ordered the XL and realized it was way too big when it arrived. The company changed the size for us and sent a new crate when they reshipped. So easy. So polite. Definitely USA based which makes a difference in customer service. Would highly recommend."
"Excellent crate for my rather hyper working dog. She destroyed 2 Var-kennels previously. Not only is this crate secure, cool and, indestructible, she loves it. If my other PPD was a young fella, I would get him one, too. I highly recommend. I have GSDs. It’s the ultimate solution. Their sales staff is top of the line as well."
"We have a very strong 3-year-old Rottweiler who destroyed our Kong XL crate. When we contacted Kong about a replacement, they refused to honor any warranty or replacement. We decided to invest in a Rock Creek Crate, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Rock Creek Crates builds an incredibly sturdy crate with a 1-inch steel frame that truly lives up to its reputation. The structure is solid and impressive—our Rottweiler cannot damage it, no matter how hard she tries. Now when our girl needs to be crated, our worries are gone and we have complete peace of mind knowing she's safe and secure. If you have a strong, powerful dog, Rock Creek Crates is absolutely worth the investment. It's a product built to last."
"Like it so far. Had a K9 Ballistics padded dog crate bed that fit in old crate and seemed like it would in this one as well but was just a little too big. Little disappointed on that count. My dog is starting to get used to it. Unsure of not being to see out as well. Removed front door panels so he had more visibility."
"I have a German shepherd that has severe separation anxiety. He was moving his cage around my house and chewing furniture up when we left him. This fort Knox cage solved our problem! He is a completely different dog when he gets in his chokey."
"#1 - Customer Service is AWESOME! Before I purchased Roman’s High Anxiety Crate, they answered ALL questions and addressed ALL concerns. #2 - The crate comes fully assembled, which was a big thing to me. I didn’t want to spend 4+ hours putting a crate together and hoping that all the parts were included. #3 - I live in Southern California, the company is located in Utah. Ordered my crate on Monday and received it on Wednesday, 2 days after I placed the order! #4 - This High Anxiety Crate is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! The quality is awesome! Just looking at it you can see it’s extremely well made and they didn’t cut corners. It’s SOLID! NO CHEAP GARBAGE HERE! I ordered the 48” in Gray color and I’m 1,000% happy with it. My Cane Corso loves it too, but he doesn’t like the fact that he CANNOT escape out of it A BIG “Thank You” to EVERYONE at Rock Creek Crates! You guys ROCK!!!"
"Best dog kennel I’ve ever purchased — and I’ve had quite a few. If you have an escape artist dog, this is the crate for you. Can’t recommend enough!!"
"I have a 20 lb Scottish Terrier puppy that's 8 month old. All he wants to do is destroy everything. He literally chewed through the metal rung of a regular crate, somehow stripped out the pan even though it was locked, and walked around the room with the crate on his back. With this new crate, I can finally go to work and not have to worry about my puppy destroying my house. This was worth every dollar of the purchase. It is excellent quality and I expect to use it for years. Rock solid build quality. The door latch and 2 additional latches are extremely secure. Highly recommend!"
