We're bringing home our new golden retriever puppy next week and are going through the options of sleeping area, toilet training and leaving her when we're at work. We've come up with a mixture of crate for overnight and when we're in the house, and putting her in the laundry room (nice size room which is secure) for when we're at work. She'll only be left for about 4-5 hours when at work.
Is it okay to mix these two areas or is it best just to do the crate.
There's a lot of information out there and on these forums, so that's why we've ended up with the above.
On the subject of the crate, should we buy for her full size or for current?
Thanks all.
