It really doesn't matter whether you have a gerbil, a dog, or even a horse, your pet pens can mean the difference between healthy pets, or injured and unhealthy pets. All pets need a safe place to be, even those that just hang out at your home need a place where they can be comfortable and safe.
This means setting up a pen or containment area that is safe. You'll need to understand your pets habits, needs, and health in order to do it properly. Take a horse for example; an area that is full of metal debris is going to wind up injuring the horse sooner or later. An area that is too small will cause health issues as well as behavioral issues.
Whereas an area that has room to run safely, plenty of good food and water will have a horse happily and healthily heading for its training sessions. Dogs are the same way. They need a safe place to run and play, a safe place to take a nap, and a clean place for food and water.
Pet pens come in a wide assortment according to the size and disposition of your pet. Certain breeds of dogs are going to be very unhappy in a pen all the time. The pen or area needs to be big enough for the dog to get away from its feces, have room to play, and a place to sleep.
Whether this is a portable pen type or permanent, the last thing you need is an unhappy pet that gets out all the time. You can also look for other types of pens. Those that offer your dog den-type housing of sorts. Usually this is a crate type of pen and you might be surprised if you keep it in an area where you are how often your pet may use it to take a nap or head to when it gets too busy in the house.
Before setting up any type of pet pen for your animal, make sure you fully understand what constitutes a safe pen. They'll need enough room to exercise, room for food and water, as well as room to go potty and not have to stand or sleep in it.
