Re: whelping box

I personally find that 4x6 is an excellent size, although if you have enough room, bigger is better IMO. My box is 4x6 and i like it as I can get in with my pups and mom and just hang around and observe. It also gives mom enough room where she can move around and not step on pups. As they get older, they have a little more room to rough house and play until they are out of the box for good.
