Ruben is 8 months old and goes in his playpen when I run errands or can't watch him. I got it from Walmart and I love it. I have peace of mind knowing exactly where he is and what he has to play with while I am gone. I left him in my laundry room, that I thought was puppy proof, until he chewed on the corner of one of the walls. He was 4 months old then, teething and probably just ready to get out of there. I had to putty and paint! He has not chewed on sheet rock since nor do I give him the opportunity! Ruben sleeps in his crate at night. I have a 13 yr old schnauzer that is his nanny.
