What size would be big enough for a regular dachshund?

I have large male cardigan corgis, who are the same proportion as a full sized standard dachsund (because cardigans were bred from dachsunds), yet the corgis are much bigger in body and head. They fit quite happily in the medium 30" long crate. There are charts on the internet with recommendations plus ways to measure your pup. Basically, you want them to be able to lay down flat and comfortably with room to spare above their head (this does not count the "sploot" position as corgi owners call it, where their back legs protrude straight out behind them in back, thus extending their overall length about 10". Has to be a normal laying position with head up). That's a medium sized crate for most. It's nice to have extra headroom for when they are standing, but I'm pretty sure a dachsund can stand up. You could go larger with the 36" and accommodate the sploot and as others have said, give him room to turn around, but the corgis do fine with the 30-31" length.

Would the 36 inch crate be large enough for a boxer?

It's ideal for my 65 lb. rangey mutt, taller and longer than most boxers. He has enough height and enough room to lie down and to turn around. Something to consider is the size and weight for storage. This folded 36" crate is pretty heavy and unwieldy at about 25 lbs. with a soft mat included. Also, any dog has to be trained to be comfortable in a crate (see http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/dogs/tips/crate_training.html ).

Why is this cage so much cheaper then the other larger cages?!

I am not exactly sure but I would think its cheaper because it is not the secure lock model. My puppy was able to easily jiggle the door and escape. I ended up buying a more expensive model that has a much more secure locking mechanism.

Will the 30x19x21 fit a 4 month old Sheltie and Cavachon together?.

I had a 3 year old lab in it. I know the Sheltie will be fine, but I don't know what a Cavachon is. If their total weight is not over 60 pounds and height less than 36 inches, it might work.
