Tina, I would like to get a dog pen like you have for my little dogs. Do you mind telling me size and where you bought it.

Thanks,

Glenna

Regarding x-pens......they do come in different heights. The shorter ones I used for Izzy and Remi are 24in high. I also have 36in pens that keep Stuart in but are harder for me to bend over and pick the dogs out of. They are also heavier to lift onto the back of the rig, etc. Most all the pens do have "doors" in the side of one panel that you can open and close but it is usually easier for me to just lift the dogs at this time. You can see them at Petsmart. You can also find them online at sites like Pet Edge.....compare the prices. Of course shipping cost could make the online deals moot. I think I have even seen them at camping world and Walmart even. If you have any AKC All Breed dog shows in your area, the x-pens are usually carried by at least one of the vendors :) You would also get to see all the size/height variations. Good luck.

I bought two of them to put together for all my guys. Bought them at Tractor Supply - about $65 each. Love them and so do the guys.

Karen, I went to our local Farm Store (Atwoods) after reading your post. It is selling for $63.00. I didn't pick it up then because I thought It was a bit heavy. Every place I have looked on line say they weigh around 22 pounds. Maybe I am getting weak it seemed like the one at Atwoods weigh more than that. It looked like it was made out of strong material. It also had handles. Should have got it today. Thanks for info.
