Whose taken their pup away on a UK holiday cottage break? How do you ensure that pup doesn't damage the property?
Rollo - who's now 4 months but will be almost 6 months by the time of our hol. - chews the edges of kitchen units, leaps up on surfaces to drag anything down and is really only allowed, still, in the kitchen, unless totally supervised every second! So he's not really used to a free run of a whole house.
We have a dog gate on the kitchen entrance but how can we limit his freedom/ damage at a hol. cottage? We have a tiny car and already I'm not sure how to manage all the extra stuff for him for the hol., including a soft fabric fold-away crate that I'll need to buy before we go - in out little VW Polo.
Are there any easily transported 'barriers' etc that you can get to restrict access for a puppy in a bungalow style and fairly open plan cottage?
Please can people share their experiences and ideas? Obviously Rollo is still in training all the time but if I imagine he's about where he is now, in terms of general puppy destructiveness, then I am slightly worried about him ruining someone else's property, even though dogs are allowed at the cottage.
