Etna Pet Store Portable Soft-sided Dog & Cat Playpen, Tan, Large

I would have given it 5 stars, but the exact same item is available elsewhere for almost half the price. I regret that I didn't see that sooner. Having said that, I do love the product. It pops out easily and it has lots of room for my dog. I'm using this initially for pee pad training as I'm struggle with my 7-year-old spoiled dog that is used to going outside. It gets -20 F here over winter and wind chill can be even colder at -60 F. I can't, nor can my little Chiweenie, tolerate such bitter cold. She must learn to use a pad before the first snowfall. I didn't like the crate idea because it looks like prison and I was sure she was going to feel like being in prison too since she is not used to crates. I love this playpen and it does keep her contained. Unfortunately she is pretty stubborn and it apparently is going to take the pee of another dog to convince her to use the pad. But that's okay, this playpen will serve as a crate when company comes over too. It looks very nice and doesn't feel like prison for either one of us. I do highly recommend that it is used only on calm dogs that don't bite, chew, or scratch because this playpen will not hold up against destructive behaviors. It is made of mesh and fabric, so if you have one of those "I'll get out of this myself by any means!!" dog, then you should go for a wire crate that can hold up under pressure.
