I'm going to look into an xpend and put pads down since the kennel/crate isn't working out as I would like.

On another note, my little guy is skinny, I wan't to fatten him up a bit. What do you feed yours? Bailey is 7 lbs, and I can feel just about every bone when I run my hands on him.
Xpen with pads sounds like a good idea for your little guy. You are right on track.

Lucy has mild liver issues so her food will be a little different than most. She eats Natural Balance Vegetarian in the morning and Wellness Limited Ingredient of an evening.

What kibble are you feeding? I like to mix some of these things in with the kibble:
cooked carrots, green beans, boiled, organic, plain chicken and chicken broth; cottage cheese; buttered noodles; canned Wellness 99% meat dog food (Lucy eats chicken only but they make canned beef, lamb, turkey . . . my Westie loves them ALL).

If the things I mix in are warm (such as the carrots, carrot juice . . canned meat, etc) she will eat it ALL. She loves her food warm.

Just a thought.
