What is a accurate size (height) for my yorkies not to jump out of them

Dena · 12-31-2006, 10:45 PM

Well, Wookie can jump over 24inches easssy.

I say 30 inches is good. But my wookie is a jumper, so you may not need something that high? I got a 36inch baby gate just to be on the safe side and he doesnt even try

~Yorkie~Mommy~ · 12-31-2006, 11:06 PM

The playpen coming in is 26 inches high

I may have to start looking for another one

Dena · 01-01-2007, 12:47 PM

you never know, it might work. try it out and see if they try to jump out.
You know what might work is spraying bitter apple on it?

Yea but I don't want to try it out and then a month later he starts to jump out

then I can't bring it back so maybe I better be safe than sorry or maybe I can just put it for sale on YT

Oh yea and may I add Dena that your Avatar of Wookie is a CHARM!!!

I have 2 of those pens for my 2 yorkies and they worked great until Tucker discovered how to crawl out. (after a year and a half), but it only takes once for them to realize they can get out..... I went to Menard's and bought some plastic things that cover your gutters. They are about 2 foot long and 8 inches wide and really light. I fastened them with plastic wire ties around the inside of the pen on the top. Now he can't crawl over those so he is still confined when I go to work. But it is not like a complete top, still open in the middle..... works for us

Here's the play pen I got from dog.com. It's the Pet Gear Home n' Go. It's really cute, but now only serves as storage for Scruffles' toys since he can jump out of it.
