For a small puppy, I wouldn't just gate him/her in the kitchen, I would still get an xpen..
1) they can chew on wires(refrigerator, etc)
2) cabinets and molding and also wall paper..
Believe me, I have had dogs all 51 years of my life and have seen the damage little pups can do (even had my kitchen floor torn up)..and had one chew a lamp wire that was plugged in..this is why they all go in xpens now..
