I would like to know how other breeders who live in an area with fairly cold winters (Kentucky), deal with winter litters. My spring litters, born in April or so, are ready and willing to go outside when they are quite young. I have a huge double fenced area for them, and they are safe to roam. Inside, there is only their Central Metal whelping pen in my family room. I have French doors that prohibit puppies from going into the living room/dining room areas, so they are free to roam the kitchen/pantry/family room area. The one winter litter I raised ate pieces from the leather furniture and did a good job of tooth sanding the wooden tables, all antique. I certainly can't keep them locked up in the whelping box for 10 weeks. Any suggestions, other than removing all of my furniture?? Rosanne
