Around 4:30 am I hear her and think.....she sounds alot closer than her playpen so I get up to check and sure enough she's at the top of the stairs. Sooooo thankful she didn't hurt herself. I checked her pen and she did pee and poop on the pee pad in her playpen (WAHOO) but I didn't see the gate open or any way she could have climbed under it. I put her back...waited a few minutes as she really wanted back out and sure enough she begins to climb the pen. WOW! She's only a little over 2 lbs so never expected this. I checked online and Iris does carry a mesh cover but the reveiws said it was attached by velcro, not a tight fight and their puppies still escaped. Not sure what to do but need something ASAP cause we also may need to leave her for 5 hours soon for a funeral. Wondering if there is a better way to secure the mesh cover if I purchased it since it's probably the better fit. If it's lose, being mesh I would have to think there's a way to "tie" it down. Any ideas? Thanks! Good luck Scopeland.... |
Oh dear, I cannot believe your pup scaled that gate! Romeo does not like to be confined but he's never tried to "escape" that playpen. I've seen some great portable playpens at PetSmart but they are expensive, and in my opinion, not at all sturdy.
