Does anybody have this ex-pen? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

cute! I like that! My little girl is also a climber. I think that she is a cat in a dog's body!

I have this one, I love it. It's cute with the little door. My girls are pretty sturdy and have springs in their legs and they've never gotten out. What I really like is that it is expandable and collapses real easy. The pin in the corners are long and slide straight up. If you take it somewhere it sets up in a matter of mere seconds. I use it in the living room corner because it looks nice and it is small. It is more of a toy, play space and pee corner, the door stays open all the time. The real xpen, the big one, is in our bedroom. The only time I close them up in this one anymore is when I have to quick run out with the big boys or the vacuum comes out or something. And we use this one to travel. It was their starter pen...LOL

Thats what I need it for. I want to keep the door open because the pen I have now he can't get his toys out or go and lay down when he wants. He'll just sit next to his pen waiting for me to notice that he wants to sleep or get a toy.

I LOVE this pen; got 2 of them so I could add panels to the original one cause I had the 2 pups in it. It sets up so easy, is sturdy enough, and the door is great.

I have the Iris x-pen and LOVE it! My Zhoie is not a climber or jumper either. She goes in/out to her crate whenever she wants. It's in my tiled sunroom, so it works for both of us.

jacquelinebabco · 10-20-2009, 09:44 AM

I brought both my puppies up in this pen. I have two pens and love them. Of course, as they got older they learned how to climb but served the purpose for as long as I needed to confine them.

Love_Capone · 10-20-2009, 02:53 PM

Capone's not a climber but he does like to stand at the corner on two feet and this one is a couple inches shorter than the one I have now so I hope he doesn't turn into a jumper or climber.

I have the Iris ex-pen and it is wonderful!! It comes as a 36x36, 4 panels. I order 2 additional panels to enlarge to a 6 panel. The door is super nice too, good quality.

Do you use anything as a floor?

Perrella · 10-21-2009, 11:41 AM

Oops, hit the wrong key, think I lost my last message to you. I don't use anything on the floor. Zhoie goes outside to do her business, but it's on tile in my sunroom, so if they was an accident, no big deal.

Love_Capone · 10-21-2009, 12:19 PM

My main problem is scratching holes in the carpet, he only has accidents if he's sick. My whole house is carpet except the kitchen which is really small so I keep him in my bedroom or the living room.

Love_Capone · 10-25-2009, 12:49 PM

Just an update: I love this pen! It is a little short but capone loves having the door and so do I. He goes and gets all his toys He went in there and laid down. I love it. I want to teach him "go to your room" when I want him to go in and to I want to teach him to put all his toys away. But so far I love it.
