Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / Puppy pen for large litter

Hi All

Am looking for a new puppy pen for my upcoming litter. Up to now I have always used the one from Dog Health which is fab but when it comes to cleaning it I have to take pups out. Would prefer one that had an internal divider so that I can just move them to one end when cleaning. Needs to be big and sturdy enough for large breed litters.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't checked but you may find something suitable on Ebay (you can buy most things there lol).   Perhaps buying two and linking them might work - we had some 4 X 4 panels that I used to link with our conventional ex-pen to make it bigger.    Alternatively put the puppies in a crate(s) while you clean the ex-pen?

ps    I'd not buy anything until you know how many puppies you are dealing with!!

Scan showed 11 pups, my current pen is 4ft wide and 12ft long so nice size but it's the cleaning that's a problem. Of all the pens I have looked at you can buy extra panels to make it bigger but not make a divider as such to move pups to whilst cleaning up paper etc and mopping.

You could get an extra door panel assuming its the big puppy pen and just attach it with large cable ties or jubilee clips are better
then you can leave door open or take it off
