Payment Terms

  • All sales within Texas are subject to applicable sales tax.
  • An order is not considered binding until the balance has been paid in full.
  • Full payment must be received before production begins and before shipment of any item.

Cancellation Terms

  • We offer a 48-hour grace period after your order is placed to cancel for a full refund.

  • Typical delivery window after shipment is 6–10 business days, depending on the carrier.
  • Customers will receive carrier information and tracking details once the item leaves our facility.
  • Curbside delivery includes placement at your property but does not include unboxing or inside delivery.

Lead Times

  • Our standard production lead time is 4–6 weeks.
  • Lead times are estimates and may vary based on production schedules, material availability, or other unforeseen circumstances.
  • We will communicate any significant delays with you directly.

Scope of Services

Due to the nature of working with solid hardwood and handcrafted methods:

  • No two pieces are exactly identical.
  • Final dimensions may vary by up to ±0.5".
  • Natural wood characteristics such as knots, holes, cracks, grain patterns, and color variations are inherent and celebrated, not considered defects.
  • Variations in color and stain absorption are natural and not grounds for return or refund.
  • All products are designed for residential use only. Commercial use is prohibited and voids all warranties.

Warranty Terms

Dog & Crate warrants against manufacturing defects for 30 days from the date of delivery.

In the case of a defect, we will assess the situation and offer a repair, replacement, or refund at our discretion.

Warranty does not cover issues arising from:

  • Abuse, misuse, or damage (including dog chewing)
  • Wood movement (expansion, contraction) due to climate changes
  • Natural variations in wood appearance (knots, grain, color)

After delivery, proper maintenance is the sole responsibility of the purchaser

Returns & Refunds

  • If you wish to return an item, you must contact us within 7 days of receiving your shipment.
  • All returns must be approved by Dog & Crate prior to shipping the item back.
  • Approved returns are subject to a 25% restocking fee (industry standard).
  • Items must be returned in new, unused condition.
  • Once the returned item is received and inspected, refunds may take up to 14 business days to process.
  • Dog & Crate reserves the right to decline a return or refund if the item is not returned in original condition.
