Thank you everyone for your advice. I am on the lookout for one of those hexagonal play pens for her then I can gradially give her more room as she gets better. I work part time in a school only 1 and a half days and Im home or lunch but I would feel guilty leaving her in a cage while I'm there. especially as my older dog will have the run of the house! One of those play pens will be ideal coz her mum going to have one more litter next year and we plan to pup her when shes older so it will come in handy for the litters aswell. thank you again.
