dog crates 36 inches image
Kitten
All the dog crates i look at are in inches. All the descriptions say is "xx" inches....I'm not sure if its like xx inches tall or xx inches long or xx inches wide. It would be easier if they we all labeled S, M, L, XL but they're not so please help! how do i know which measurement wont be to small or too big? He 6mos and medium sized...probably not going to get a lot bigger.

Look for a crate that is 36" Long. That will be the appropriate size for an adult Siberian Husky.

What height of ex pen should I get for a German Shepherd puppy?

Getting an 8 week old GS puppy soon and wondering about the height of the ex pen...36 inches okay, or does it need to be taller? I'm just using it in the house when we're home to keep the puppy in it's own little space. Thanks.
Answer
36 inches (3 feet) will be perfect for an 8 week old German Shepherd puppy. However, that puppy is going to grow very fast and will be able to climb a 36 in. x-pen with no doubt. 48 inches (4 feet) would be best if you are planning to use it as she gets older and much larger.
Another idea, which I highly suggest to people, is to crate train. Dogs are den animals. A crate will provide your puppy with a place of his own. When a puppy is left home alone or is not able to be watched 100% then he should be crated for his own safety. Personally, I would never use anything but a crate. My oldest German Shepherd (3 years) is now trusted to be allowed to roam the kitchen when we are gone. My other German Shepherd (1 year) is still too much of a puppy to be completely trusted and she is still crated while we are gone. Neither of them need to be crated at night anymore. My youngest absolutely *loves* her crate and lays in there on her own multiple times per day.
The down side to an x-pen is that once the puppy grows into a full size German Shepherd, he will easily be able to jump up on the x-pen, move it around, and knock it over. As long as you are home, I don't see a problem with it because you can keep an eye on him. I would not leave him in the x-pen while you are gone though. I suggest hitting two birds with one stone and just buying a crate.
