in the day i keep him in our laundry room with 2 babygates. he has his bed,food and water and i have a cardboard box with 2 pee pads. there small dogs so its enough room for him to walk around. my neighbor leaves hers in the bathroom with a baby gate. all depends on you. i've heard horror stories about x-pens and hangings and my boy didnt like a playpen i tried to use at first so laundry room works great....
try pads first then slowly introduce outside...worked for me
