i saw that cut down storage box on Debbie's site but my hubby veto'd that idea saying she would drag her tits over the rough edge and it would make her raw. Also, we felt the little plastic pool would be too large. I have one of the small ones but it is still tooo large. They need a place they can be warm and cozy. So our Walmart has these kind of flat storage bins that slide under the beed. They have a large one and a kind of meduim size one. I think it only comes in twwo sizes. it is made by stearlight or something like that. It is only about five inches or so high. So, i bought an X-pen (needed it for the pups later anyway and set it up in my bedroom in the rectangle shalee. Oblong. Since I have carpet in there, I had this piece of left over flooring that I put under it. Then I set the whelping box in the end of it. I have pee pads in the other end and will put Silk's bed in it after the puppies grow a little so she won't mash them. I have her food and water dish in the x-pen also. I bought one of those postage scales at office Depot for about thirty bucks. it weighs in pounds and ounces and tenths of ounces up to five pounds. I have all mmy stuff in a box and am just waiting. and waiting, and waiting. Good luck |
