It's a border collie/lab retriever mix...she is 1 year old...and will she grow anymore do you think? Because I don't want to spend a bunch of money on a crate that she will end up outgrowing.
Where can I get one for cheap?
@Carol: I would do that, but I'm picking her up from the humane society tomorrow to take her home, and need something to put her in. lol but thanks!

Answer
You will often see crates on Craig's List for sale
SInce she is a mix, you're going to need to measure her height at the top of her head when she stands square - she will need to be able to stand without ducking down, and turn around comfortably, and lie on her side with her legs stretched out.

Answer
Alaska and Continental are the two best airlines to fly a dog (no weather restrictions) , Delta comes in next. You have to make sure the dog is current on all vaccines, take him to the vet for a health certificate prior to travel. Book your flight, get an appropriate crate and you are all set. The price is by weight and crate size, rough guess about $400.

You can check out the airlines web page for more detailed info.
