Large Dog Whelping Box - 4ft x 4ft Multipurpose Bedding, Puppy Cage, and Play Pen for Indoor or Outdoor Use - Heavy Duty Pen, Cage, or Fence With Wooden Insert

The media could not be loaded. After our little floozy had a liaison with the boy that moved in next door (a tale as old as time), we soon discovered she was expecting! After lots of research, decided on this whelping box as seemed sturdy and fit for purpose. I was right (phew) and Ellie gave birth to 8 beautiful pups and despite trying to lie on them all the time (d’oh), the rail around the edge helped to protect them as did any one of the family members that monitored them for the first 3 weeks. After 4 weeks the little beauties became terrors as they learned how to climb up one side and go splat on the other so if your dogs are going to be on the smarter side… you may want to invest in the height extender. As it was, with 8 pups, we moved onto a bigger pen at just over 4 weeks as they needed the space and have since given the original whelping box to another person who is about to have puppies themselves! It came down really easily and was reassembled with no issues. Worth the money.

Good for a large/medium dog. I have a medium labradoodle. Seems strong and is what it is.Comes with cage part round the wood as in picture. Haven’t used it for purpose yet but seems like it will hold for job.

Decent whelping pen. Sturdy. Presumably Large Dog Whelping Pen means it's for large dogs. My cavapoo actually lay UNDER the "pig rail", as you can see in the photograph, so we had to be on extra alert for squashed puppies. Having said that it's doing well so far and is a nice safe space for the pups. I have attached feeding bowls to the railings which is quite handy. The size is perfect for our lounge. Not too big. Not to small. We can sit in the pen if need be and I like the waterproof sheet for underneath. The metal railings are a bit bent but it doesn't affect the use. Pretty happy. A must have for and owner expecting a litter. :)

Came with easy instructions to assemble, great for the job

Good solid whelping box and cage. Straightforward to put together. Very pleased.

Following a very late confirmation of an unplanned pregnancy, due date of 22nd December, I ordered this item.Delivery was estimated to be 21st, but a quick message to the seller resulted in a quicker delivery, not needed as birthed on 25th, but very much appreciated, just for the peace of mind.Only ended up having 1 Labrador pup, and mother rejected her, but the box has been ideal for areas with a heat lamp, 1 for a heat pad, and the other half with just bedding, so pup can regulate temperature despite no litter mates.The box is definitely big enough for a mum and litter, and is very well made and easily assembled.Would recommend based in quality and the sellers customer service.

When all the whelping boxes were over £300 this is a good whelping box for the price.It does have limitations. You cannot clean it well as its wood. Mum cannot have access if you are not there, and you are using the flexipanels. We had to use it with a ellie boo playpen to allow access.A puppy got her leg stuck in the flexipanel. The screaming was horrible. So glad I was in the room at the time. That meant we had to board up the flexipanels.I will use it again but being mindful of the above.

Sturdy whelping box, very easy to put together. I put it together on my own, armed with only a screwdriver, within 20 minutes. Ordered the large for our cocker which is massive, could have gotten away with a medium but never mind. Size large will easily accommodate labradors and other large breeds. Pups will have plenty of room to grow and mum can move away from them for a rest if she wants to. Included plastic sheeting will make it easy to clean up too. Nicely made and good value for money. Will be easy to take apart and put away until it is next needed. Definitely worth buying.
