You've gotten lots of good advice. I wanted to add that our new puppy (thirteen weeks) sleeps in his small crate with a sheepskin-like crate pad in it. It is always left open so that he has access to his wee wee pad in a plastic frame (purchased at Petsmart for $15) which, like his crate and toys, is in his exercise pen. He does occasionally miss his wee wee pad, but he never goes pee or poop in his crate. When he comes out of his exercise pen to play, we place his wee wee pad and his sheepskin-like crate pad on the floor with some toys. |
