We have had a dog before, but its been a while since we had a pup. I notice everyone seems to get a crate these days. Im not sure if to get one or indeed if I need one, but it seems like a really good idea as we have a new house and new carpets (madness isnt it?).
We will be getting a Yorkie, and I did think we could perhaps manage something with our babydan playpen and stairgates. I did think first of keeping him in our kitchen as it has a hard floor, but our kitchen is at the front, and our back garden is accessed via the lounge dining room (French doors) so that would be a better location. I was thinking of actually buying a waterproof decorating sheet to cover the lounge carpet, or at least part of it. Then perhaps using the baby dan playpen with his bed in it near the French doors for easy access at pee time.
Any suggestions as to how to set up home for him or how a crate would help things along?
