The front door locks with two slide-bolt latches, and the crate top with one.ROLLING with LOCKING WHEELS: Includes four rolling casters for easy transfer from room to room. Two wheels have locks to prevent accidental movement and keep your cage securely in place.RUST & CORROSION-RESISTANT: Featuring a multi-layer, protective hammer-tone coating that resists rust, corrosion, and fading, this cage is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.REMOVABLE PAN FOR EASY CLEANING: Tray is stain and rust resistant and won't retain pet odors. Grated design allows for any soiling to drop to the lower pan to maintain a clean environment for pets. Bottom pan features an integrated lip around the perimeter to contain any mess from spilling outside the kennel. Both trays are held securely in place by a retaining latch to prevent slipping, but can easily slide out from the bottom for easy and convenient cleaning.
While we haven't used one for 'activities' We have a large one for our previous dog. The nice thing is with a large one is you can actually make it smaller by putting walls inside the cage.
It's a lot harder to make a cage larger after you've purchased a smaller one.
I just saw a large one at a thrift store for 30 bucks. and one slightly smaller for 20.
Also, look at amazon and e-bay for much better pricing. I think ours was an e-bay one and it was quite inexpensive (not thrift store cheap) and similar to the one you posted. if you find you like it you could move onto This
Along with a lot more exercise, have you tried a heavier duty crate?
