Nadine83 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Could you use something like chicken wire (you can get sturdier wire from bunnings as well)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I used a cardboard box for a Lab puppy. I think there might have been a few teeth marks, but it definitely wasn't destroyed. Just get a thick one perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouty Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Could you use something like chicken wire (you can get sturdier wire from bunnings as well)? i used a step i purchased from ikea. however you can still fit a big dog in the with it, as seen below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shazzapug Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Why do you need a crate divider? Humour me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirst_goldens Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 thanks guys!! i might check out bunnings for the wire SHazza, i have a 42 inch crate and a golden puppy so she will have too much room and may use half the crate as a toilet so ill divide the crate until she is bigger then she can have the whole crate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolving Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I have my crate dividers still if you want it. I think one of them has to be a 42" crate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldielover Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 kirst, i've never bothered with a crate divider and i've raised quite a few goldies in crates. My first was a nightmare as she just didn't get NOT to poo in her crate LOL (then lie in it! eewww). All of the others have been fantastic - my last 3 pups didn't toilet in the crate at all. A few nights we had to go outside in the middle of the night, but we made it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebanne Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I've never used a crate divider, pups have always gone into full size crates. I use the alarm to wake up twice over night for toilet trips at the beginning, the crate is set up in my bed room so I can hear them if they need out at other times. During the day they are rarely in the crate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tilly Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 When I got my GSD pup I used some old cushions under the blankets but up around the side of the crate ... to take up some extra space and to provide some extra comfy padding for the little bundle to curl up. He also had his teddy bear and a couple of toys ... and suddenly an XLarge cate seems a bit too small ... I ended up having to get an XXLarge crate not long after he came home.

arjay Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 http://shop.vebopet.com.au/store/crate-div...anel-large.html you can buy the dividers here. Anyone used them before? Can you position the divider not just in the middle but just say closer to the front dog door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
