| soft sided playpens for yorkies? Has anyone had any experience with a soft sided playpen? If so what has been your experience? We were just wandering becouse in our opinion they look a little better than the metal ones. I had one of those pop up tents (not a soft sided playpen), but similer, and my yorkie chewed a whole right thru it and climbed out! At what age do they usually stop chewing so much? We would appreciate any oppinions? Thanks! |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | I used the soft-sided playpen for feeding my biewers puppies--since they were eating puppy food. I kept them supervised and took them out when they were done eating. Otherwise, we use xpens and crates; safer in my opinion for the dog. I tried the playpen when I only had my Havanese--he figured out how to climb out the first day I had it and I couldn't find him for hours. |

| I got the blue soft playpen that looks like the baby playpen. He hated it. He whined and barked when I put him in there. If I pushed it, he would try to chew anything on it that he could. Ultimately I donated it to his daycare center because it was taking up too much room and became nothing but a toybox! Better off with an Xpen or confining the pup to the kitchen or similar. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Cali has been in a dog playpen since I got her 8 months ago. I love it and so does she. She only goes in now when no one is home but will sleep in their when I'm home if she wants privacy. She has never gotten out of it or chewed it and she chews everything else.
