I am SO pumped for you! That's the exact one I have! My baby was 12 weeks and doesn't like it - I think that's because the breeder let her run around, and she likes to be with her momma!!! Let us know how it goes!

| I will let you know how it goes! Gracie will not go intoa crate AT ALL so I am hopiing to train my new puppy a little better She will be way to small to be left in the same room with Gracie when I get her so this pen will be the perfect little home for her. I was told to make sure an gradually introduce her to it and I will give it a try! The pen is sooo nice and its very girly!!!!

| playpens hi, i was thkng of getting one of those playpens for my new puppy-she is a handful and i cant seem to get a gate big enough for our kichen for when i'm out /working. I am worried that she will get crazy in there and knock the wire one over -when it's inside=any of you used those? it doesnt look like it will hoist into the floor-and the pink one is way cute, but wouldnt a puppy chew right through it??? curious.... and tired of coming home to find my puppy escaped from my rigged baby gate-and surprises on the carpet- although she usually attempts to get to the potty pad when she's out roaming |

As far as the wire cages I had it was rather heavy so Gracie couldnt knock it over or move it even. The only thing I made sure of was that the wire crossing were not too big to where she could get her head stuck or anything. I bought the pink playpen for my new puppy just because I think it will help protect my carpet where as the wire cages you have to put a rather thick lining in them so in case of accidents like water spills or potty/poop wouldnt stain! And also it seems alot more cozy for my baby! I would suggest the pink playpen or they come in blue and made by pet gear.

| Hi Everyone; First time posting, but for my Cosmo, who is a year old and about 5 lbs, I went to Petsmart and got one of the portable play yard pens. I have both a German Shepard and 5 kids still at home so needed something safe for my baby. It is 26" high, metal and folds up. I can make it as small as I want or expand it totally when we are outside. Because of it folding, I also can take it to my grandbabies house, camping, around different parts of the house, etc. The cost was around $40. My Cosmo chews all the time so I couldn't get anything that might hurt him if he swallowed. I have him litter box trained and have a bed in it for him. I keep a larger one in my kitchen, for when I'm at work, and one by the side of my bed to sleep by me. The larger one is big enough to fit my Shepard,(the cost was around $70, it is 5 ft tall, but also folds up) so gives Cosmo losts of running room during the day. I have to say that this was the best purchase that I could have made for Cosmo. I put him in it when people are over, since I am so nervous that someone might step on him. Particularly when my grandson is over, he is 3. Thanks |

| Tucker still uses a human baby playpen and loves it. Often when he is in his bigger ex-pen he'll whine for his playpen. He prefers to sleep there. It's nice because it is on wheels so we can roll him around the house with us. He is just over 4 months old. I buy heavy duty shower curtain liners and wrap the mattress with it. I put a pee pad in a doggie litter box and one end and his bed, dishes toys at the other end. He has chewed two small holes in the mesh, but I resewed them and keep them sprayed with bitter bite. He'll also often chew through the shower curtain liner which is annoying, but again I use the bitter bite here too. Julie and Tucker |

| Updated! Well I brought Lily home today and we are using her pink playpens I bought. We have it all set up with her food and sleep area on one end and her pee pad on the other. I just have one question though.... Right now I just put her in the playpen to potty on the pad.....should I have another pee pad somewhere else and be bringing her to that one too?? Or do I wait until she gets the one in the playpen down to the right potty area???

| I bought a play pen when i first got my puppy. When he was in it he would pee on the pads but never poop. When he out of it he disregards the pads and goes on the carpet. He plays in it when im cooking or cleaning and dont want to put him in the crate..But when he gets tired of playing he whines and tries to jump out, but he cant..I use it sometimes but the crate works better for me overnight..for some reason he doesnt cry in the crate at night but he does in the pen.. |
