Our two pups, Fred and Ginger, are still at the "chewing and pulling" stage. Inside the house, we can keep them away from the furniture. clothing and other objects by crating them (with a treat) or by just saying "No!".
However, they do need outside exercise. Unfortunately, if we let them loose in the yard , they will dig it up, pull on the plants and do other things to wreak havoc.
We have considered building a separate fenced-in area, since we live on two acres, to give the pups an an area to romp around. But how large an area?
I've also seen ads online for pre-built "crates" for outdoor use. Has anyone here had any experience with them? One of them measured 10x10 feet,but I'm not sure if that's enough running space for the pups, since they are almost a year old.
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Roy and Jean
