What do you all use for your mom and pups as they get older?
Right now the pups are in a crate a plastic one with the top off so mom can come and go as she pleases. However they are going to be walking pretty soon (they can all get up on all 4's and make it a few steps before falling )
I am going to need something bigger and big enough to have a room for them to be contained yet play and have a potty spot.
Ok so I am here with them almost all the time so I can clean pretty much as soon as they go potty most of the day and a couple times at night.
I have looked at the dog exercise pens they are small about 4x4 I am told.
I am thinking of maybe making a "box" out of the small diamond shape lattice with something washable or asto turf or something on the bottom.
It needs to be fairly moveable and really after these pups I wont be using it again no more pups here but I would like something I can contain them in for a while to help get thru the puppy stage safely for those that we are keeping.
So what do you all use? How much space do they really need? I am thinking that we will take them out a couple at a time for playing and more room but I wont be able to keep an eye on all 5 at once
Love to hear what works for you
