In the list you have 2 crates listed: the first is the small crate for sleeping and later on you mention the kitchen crate where you can feed your dog. I'm confused. Should there be two crates available or would an exercise pen serve the same purpose as the second crate?
I just read over that again and it is confusingly worded. I do not think it is neccessary to have 2 crates for your dog. I do feed many of mine in their crates which is very helpful when I have some on different diets than others and it keeps my big dogs from munching down the yorkie food.
I do recommend using the crates for training coupled with a larger area like an ex-pen or closed off puppy-proofed kitchen when the pup will be unmonitered for any length of time.
Please let me know if you notice anything else strange or confusing...I am trying to make it as clear as possible....and thanks.
