We will be picking up our first pup on Dec. 23. We are debating which crate is best, and who better to ask than experienced owners!

I thought the hard, plastic carrier would be best since it can also double as a carrier when traveling. Hubby thinks a wire cage/crate is a better option since it is a little more open.

I am home during the day, so our pup will be with me most of the time, but we do plan to crate train when we're gone and at night.

Advice? Opinions?
