Overview
A 48 by 48 by 18 inch whelping box from ondware built for a mother dog and her puppies, made of iron and polyester with a waterproof whelping pad included. It requires assembly.
This is a whelping box for birth and early puppy care, not a general dog crate despite how it may be filed on some category pages, and it is sized for medium and small breed mothers. The waterproof pad is the piece meant to protect the floor underneath during whelping.
- 48 x 48 x 18 inch whelping box
- Waterproof whelping pad included
- Iron and polyester construction
- Sized for medium and small breed dogs
Who it's for
Meant for breeders or owners preparing a small to medium breed dog for whelping and the first weeks of raising a litter, not for everyday containment or travel. Not a substitute for a standard dog crate.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Waterproof whelping pad included
- Sized for medium and small breed litters
- 48 by 48 inch floor area gives room for mother and puppies
- Assembly required out of the box
- No customer reviews yet on how well the frame holds up
Performance notes
The iron frame gives the box its structure at 48 by 48 by 18 inches, and the polyester components make up the waterproof pad meant to catch fluids and keep the floor beneath clean during whelping. It ships unassembled and needs to be put together before use.
