Help! My puppy keeps jumping out of his playpen. What can I do?
It sounds like Buddy needs a kennel or a playpen with a top on it unfortunately. Now that he has figured out he can jump out he is likely to continue this behavior because it is rewarding to him. My own puppy discovered he could climb his play pen at a young age! I purchased some thick plastic garden fencing and used it to put a "roof" on his playpen to prevent this. Another option would be a large crate if you want a bigger area for him to play in. They also make very tall playpens for larger dogs, but be sure that Buddy isn't actually climbing the side of the pen before you get one of these!

Vet Q & A
Is a dog crate good for my small dog's safety from kids and comfort?
A crate or crate training is never a bad idea. It can also serve as a safe place for Bella (as you have stated). It doesn't need to be huge either, just big enough for her to lay down, turn around and stand. Make sure there are no sharp edges and that the bars are close enough together so she cannot get her head between them.

My puppy escapes her crate. How do I keep her safely inside?
I would recommend getting a different cage or one that requires two fingers to engage a spring. Dogs are unable to open the cages that have the springs in my experience. These are similar to cat carriers that have the spring loaded mechanism on the door. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

What are the best enrichment toys and activities for senior dogs?
Great question! Many dogs of any age enjoy enrichment toys that are either balls that bounce unpredictably or puzzle toys that release small treats. Peanut and his friend are still pretty agile, a good game of fetch or playing "hide and seek" with a toy can be a lot fun for everyone. These websites have some good examples of enrichment toys, but plenty of puzzle toys can also be found on Amazon or in pet stores: https://www.ottoenvironmental.com/toys-3?pagenumber=5 https://www.czs.org/custom.czs/media/CenterAnimalWelfare/Orangutan-Husbandry-Manual/Enrichment/Enrichment-manufacturers-suppliers.pdf Have fun playing! :-)
