Hi! I've just adopted a labs retriever puppy. He is still so small. I would like to ask if anybody has a second hand crate that we can buy. Any suggestion will do ^_^

Thanks so much!

I'm really new in this. Many people & articles in the net recommend me to to the crate method. I wasn't thinking that it may cost some problems in the future. What problems it would be?

Newspaper method? Haven't heard about it. hehehe...I'm really a new player. Do you mind to explain?

Thanks so much Chelsea...u'r the best!

Please be careful when using the crate method for house training as it can lead to problems later on. QAWS usually recommends using the newspaper method.

For a large dog (which yours will be very soon) you will need an Extra Large or Giant vari kennel which are hard to buy second hand as they are expensive so people keep them for when they leave Qatar with their animals.

Well, actually I need the crate for doing the "crate training". He just doesn't want to sleep in the dog house that we've made from a box carton.

Thanks anyway! ^_^

I wouldn't worry about getting a crate just yet unless you are travelling soon. Puppies grow very quickly and you will have to keep buying bigger ones eveytime you need to use it.

A cardboard box with a nice blanket in it is a good bed. They're cheap so it doesn't matter when the puppy chews it to pieces!
