Frisco Wire Dog Exercise Pen with Step-Through Door

Easy to set up and configure into the shape you want. I feel like it is sturdy especially when shaped into an octagon (clips and anchors used; one pen was used without the anchors for a short period of time with our puppy.

I did purchase two exercise pens to make the play area bigger for our 8 week old Goldendoodle puppy. The exercise pen can be attached to a crate to extend the crate training area.

I bought this for my holland lop bunny while we are potty training him & to keep him safe while he's learning to free roam! It's great space (32 inch) and he wanders around without feeling cramped or overwhelmed! (we put a sheet over the top to make him feel safe) The only issue is the gate latches have gotten hard to slide and we've only had it for a month or so. It doesn't matter to use we just use the clips that are included and it works fine, but will probably be an issue for dog owners just something to keep in mind. I wish we could buy more panels to expand a little more but we love it!

We have two small dogs, Nori and Daisy. We have it set up in the bedroom. The cage itself is far too large for the room, but we only opened it up enough to fit the space we needed for them. We tie rapped the rest that we don't need This way, we can expand it if for them if we go camping. Norie rated the exercise pen with four paws and a tail wag. Daisy gave it 3 paws and three tail wags. What they liked about it is that we were able to put a good sized doggie bed in the pen which gave them enough room to stretch out and still have plenty of room to add a bowl of water. The door gives us the advantage of not having to lift them to put them in and out of the pen. They go in there willing We have two small dogs, Nori and Daisy. We have it set up in the bedroom.

Because they are small dogs, we don't have to worry about them hurting themselves jumping off the bed. … more

So, it took a bit longer to arrive than I had anticipated. I'm guessing that is because of the covid! However, it arrived and I put it up rather quickly and without any issues. If you are getting this to sit on a tile floor, you might want to really rethink that one. I have it on a tile floor and my pup is able to move it all over with ease. Now I have a lab mix spirited pup, so maybe that's the issue. It's also not super sturdy...meaning that there is play in the side panels. The door really isn't sturdy, but that might be because it's off the ground without support on the top area. But, does it do the the job that I have purchased it for, yes. I haven't tried this outside, but it's nice that So, it took a bit longer to arrive than I had anticipated. I'm guessing that is because of the covid!

Had to buy two of them because 12 Great Dane puppies grow fast. Works perfect for a weaning from the welping box so the mom can go in and out of the cage when needed. We used old bedding and bought extra cheap blankets and puppy pads and rotated clean one in when needed. Cage is a little flimsy but super portable and takes up very little space. Easy to disassemble and put up

The clamps that are supposed to hold the play pen in an octagon pop off easily when my dog lays down up against the walls. We have to reattach and configure it at least 4 times a day. Plus when it is on a hard surface it slides around and scratches hardwood. It has served the purpose of keeping our 5 month old contained but he can easily push it around when he gets rambunctious.

I like it but I don’t think it is best for your pet if you have young children. My kids were able to push the gates of the play pen and move it where I was scared they would squish the dog. Even though I had the black pieces to hold it that came with it.... the black pieces either fell off or the kids were able to pull it off. So I wouldn’t highly recommend for indoors use for your pet if you have small children... the price is good but I had to spend a little more to buy something more safe for both my pet and kids.

I really like this pen and the way it can be configured. Our Australian Shepherds gave us eight puppies and we needed a way to corral them. This pen allowed us to keep them where they needed to be on a hardwood floor for easy cleanup. We also used this outside in the grass when they were 4-5 weeks old. We selected the 36-inch height. The 30 inch size would have been fine AND be easier to lean over to pickup, cleanup, add water, add food, etc. I ended up buying two units and connected them together. Back in the house, this pen was able to be clipped to the 2-door crate we slept the puppies in. Five or six of the puppies would rest on the floor inside the crate and also have the space of I really like this pen and the way it can be configured.

At 6-7 weeks old, they would all sleep inside the crate space and then go poop and pee outside on the pads withing the pen space. This pen collapses into 24-inch by 36 inch by 2 inches thick unit for storage. It can be easily carried from place to place as it weighs about 20 pounds. The door is nice because it has a section of the wire frame at the bottom that connects the left and right sides together and adds stability when the gate is opened. We will keep these units and take them camping with us for the two adult dogs. … more

Overall a great playpen sturdy enough for my dog it’s just the locks on this. By the reviews I thought it would be easy as just pushing it in like my crate but this one it was so hard for me to push through the lock, so most of the time it will not go in all the way! It was really disappointing thinking how much I spent on this even though it’s way cheaper than most playpens but hope this Helps!

The pen is sturdy (same material as dog crates) and it folds up like an accordion, so it's easy to transport. It's about hip-height, so our 13-week old puppy still can't get his paws over the top of it when he stands on his hind legs. Easy to re-position into any shape. There are plastic "locks" that go on the top when it's in a hexagonal shape, which help with stability. Gave us peace of mind when we have to leave the house and don't want pup in the crate.
