Tag Archives: puppy playpen

A puppy playpen is the practical middle ground between a crate and free run of the house: enough space for a bed, a bowl and a pad, but contained enough to keep teeth away from cables. Six to eight panels at 24 to 32 inches tall suit most litters and young dogs, and a door panel with a one handed latch lets you step in without dismantling anything. Rubber feet protect floors indoors, ground stakes hold on grass. Expect to move it as the puppy grows, so favour panels that fold flat. Our Playpen collection ships free with no minimum order.
