I want the pups I place to be contained until adulthood and longer if they have a tendancy to chew. Pens 2x3 or using a baby gate when the owner is away is necessary IMO...one buyer lost her pup who chewed her hairdryer cord...came home to a dead pup..others eat flooring, everything in sight..has nothing to do with training. They can be angels when you are there and devils when you close the door and leave.

I would no more leave a Yorkie pup to roam then a human toddler. If there was a fire, the fireman would have a better chance to find a penned pet then one hiding under a bed or couch...in fact the pen should be close to the front door or window in case.
