crate size for pup

new pup arriving 19th april my last staff never went in one but this pup is what size ,not intending to keep her in it after 18 months

They need enough room to stand and turn. She will have most of her height and length by the time she's 6 or 7 months old. Ours is a medium.

The size of crate will determine how big the pup will grow female staffy but the male if it was me id get the large.

Ive been told to big and you have house training problems I was thinking 30inch

30" should be fine. You're right about too big of a cage. It can cause toilet issues but it's not definite.

Hi and welcome to the Forum. I don't use a crate so will bow to the above advice. When you get a min do pop along to the link below and say Hi

I bought the large and had no probs with toilet training, mind you Vin did look somewhat lost in there!

bless him hen i said large as was thinking some staffs are bigger than others theres always also the option of blocking some of the cage off with wood.

Sorry dont do crates either.

I'm going for30inch if I need a bigger one later so be it but not planning to keep her in it after 18months all being well

got the crate 30 inch for starter don't look that big and bed advice for starter paper and water in overnight or just bed

Just the bed. Make sure she's been outside before bed and you should have no problems. We've caged from day one and never had an accident.
