The best setup for a puppy, includes the sleeping den inside a gated pen. This way they sleep in the kennel and can exit to play, eat and potty, but are still contained within a specific area. He sees the kennel as his sleeping quarters and in an area that small he isn't going to be able to tell there is a difference and doesn't want to soil the den. When people tell you to get a small cage, they mean just for sleeping, they let the puppy out everytime it needs to go potty, you really don't want him peeing within the kennel area at all. |
