| I made a nursery crate Okay, I'm still not done. I used a 2-door crate and made a cover that ties closed on the sides. Its accessable from the side and from the front. I'm going to make bumper pads for the entire inside so there will be no pups escaping or getting injured. The bedding is completely washable..its about 1 inch thick...is that too thick?? The bumpers will be about as thick as a thin quilt and will tuck under the crate tray for a snug fit. If it looks as if a pup can squeeze under the bumpers, I will sew them to the bed. |

| Thanks guys! I think I learned to sew from watching my grandma when I was very little (under 5). I'll post pics of the inside when I do the bumpers. My girl has not been crated at all since we got her and she's been sleeping in this since I finished it last night. I was really hoping she'd like it so she'd want to have her babies in there so I'm thrilled. |

| It's almost like a puppy condo in there! That looks very soft and comfy, even for pups that aren't having babies.
