Dog Crate - XL with Divider
Dog Crate - XL with Divider
Available at Walmart, this crate features two doors and a divider so that it can grow with your puppy. The crate size should be large enough for your puppy to stand up and turn around. Puppies will not go to the bathroom where they eat or sleep (unless they are left unattended for too long). Crate training your puppy is the best way to potty train because they will whine to let you know they need to go out.
