Ok it didn't take me long but I have a replacement for my rottie.The cat running to the door to greet you is just not the same as a dog.
I now have a lovely lurcher who comes to work with me and sleeps in the office. He is 9 weeks old and makes a good lap dog. However he is going to grow - I hope - to be a biggun !

Now I want to get him a crate ,so when we get busy here, I know he is safe.
I should explain. At the moment there is only me here, but come March there will be another 10-12 people working and I will have to keep nipping in and out of the office. I can't be taking him here there and everywhere because of health and saferty issues but he can stay in the office secured so hence the need of a crate.

If he grows as big as his mum he will stand at about 24" I have never used a crate before so what size should I be looking at for him? Don't worry he won't be in it all day. He will be taken out for a walk regularly as I am the boss so I can wander off from time to time

Oh my , he is toooooooooo cute
I would go for a medium crate, he will eventually need a bigger, but you do not want to go for a massive crate while you are toilet/crate training him, the rule of thumb, is to start small and increase in size, u can easily sell it on later for a bigger one, or a bigger one and get a divider for now to make the space smaller.
If you would like a puppy guide give me a shout, esp if this is he first you have crated as their is a crate guide in it too
More pics soon please

Thanks Cayla your puppy guide would be helpful. He is pretty good already not 100% but he's getting the idea.I won't be using the crate at home just at work.So while it's quiet there we can get into a routine.I am looking forward to taking him for walks when he has had his last jabs.Will get some more photos when he sits still for long enough !
