Puppies and toddlers are very much alike and need to be supervised. Puppies need to be kept in a safe place when you are not home or unable to supervise. Depending on age, you want to keep your puppy in a playpen, blocked in a bathroom, laundry room, or in a crate. You want to pick anything up that the puppy is not supposed to chew. If you are using a crate, make sure the crate is properly sized for your puppy. We highly recommend the use of playpens which you can purchase at PuppiesForSaleLocalBreeders.
