So I puppy proofed the kitchen and then chickened out this morning. I got the feeling that I was rushing things. She is only 3.5 months old, and has really just settled into our routine. I hate leaving her, but if she is going to bark and be distructive at least I know she is safe in her pen. I think I will wait another month or so before I give her more space when she is alone. I do not want to mess up any of the great progress we have made

.
Does anyone have any suggestions for keeping her entertained all day in her pen? There is only one day during the wek that she is in there for 8 hours. I came home to find her water bowl tipped over and the pen a mess. I give her a special treat, but it looks like she barely touches it. She also has a ton of different toys....
