What to keep my puppy in?

Question

I am away from my house for quite some time, anywhere from nothing one day, to 14 the next, so i really cant keep him on a schedule. Until i get him completely potty trained, i want to keep him confined.(i've done my research) I was keeping him in the crate for when i was gone for only 4 hours at a time. But today, i was gone for a solid, 10 hours. (someone came and let him out once) I locked him in the bathroom, with his crate(w/o door), a few toys, and water. It was just enough space for him to move around in. I keep all of that stuff in my room on a regular basis, so i do not want to keep moving it, because;

a. It's to of trouble for me

b. It will confuse him probably.

So, i am trying to decide what to get to put him in during the day, because i don't want him locked up in a crate for 10 hours. I would just keep him in my room, but who knows where he'll pee in there, and i have lots of electrical equipment in my bedroom.

I want to find something that it at least 4'x4'x4'. I would like it big enough to kit a crate, a few toys, water, and just a little floor space, i'm thinking maybe a net type thing, or a wire pen. I really would like for it to be under 30 dollars, if you find something, post the link. Also, please tell me your recent expierences with these sorts of things. Also, even if you dont have a link, just tell me some info about the product!

Thanks!

Answer 1

It sounds like you need to make a dog run for your dog, where it can go in or out. You may have to spend a little money. The inside part could  have a fan for air circulation, and you can keep his food & water there.Outsode would be a concrete tun about 4' x 20 feet. fenced in with chain link fence. It's like a regular kennel run.

Answer 2

Install a doggy door, and have about 5 feet of space fenced in around your back yard and 5 feet of space in the room the door leads to with all his toys, water, and food.

Answer 3

you could try looking at like babies r us and see if they have like play pen type fence things you can set up for a child to play in a designated area. im sure it work just as well with a puppy
