We love FXW playpens for providing puppies with a safe, designated space when direct supervision isn't possible! Their indoor playpens are a great option for keeping curious puppies out of trouble while still allowing room to move around and play. Paired with washable pads, they also make cleanup easier and help protect your floors. While playpens are a wonderful management tool, they should complement regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and training rather than replace them.
Gunner is our top choice for safety, quality, and durability. From their crash-tested kennels to food and water bowls, orthopedic pads, and travel accessories, their products are thoughtfully designed and built to last. We use and trust Gunner products with our own Labradors and are proud to partner with a company that shares our commitment to quality and safety. Through our breeder partnership, we're able to offer puppy families an exclusive 15% discount on Gunner products, shipped directly to your home or available at puppy pickup. Alternatively, you can use our referral link for $50 off your purchase!
RuffLand Kennels are another favorite of ours for their durability, practicality, and affordability. Their lightweight, one-piece construction makes them easy to clean and convenient for everyday use, whether at home or on the go. While we prefer Gunner for crash-tested vehicle protection, we use and love RuffLand for home use and local travel. They're a great option for families looking for a dependable, quality kennel without the higher price tag. We occasionally keep RuffLand Kennels in stock and are happy to offer them to our puppy families at a discounted price when available!
Homey Pet USA crates are one of our favorites for raising puppies! They're durable, easy to clean, and available in a variety of fun colors that make them a little more appealing than traditional wire crates. We recommend the 24-inch size for young puppies and typically the 42-inch size for adult Labradors. Since these crates don't include dividers, starting smaller and upgrading as your puppy grows can make crate training easier. We use and love these crates in our own program and occasionally have them available at a discounted price for our puppy families. Just let us know ahead of time if you're interested!
We love our Furbo Dog Camera for keeping an eye on our dogs when we're away from home! With live video, two-way audio, and even a treat-tossing feature, it's a convenient way to check in and see what they're up to throughout the day. We especially appreciate the peace of mind it provides when monitoring puppies or dogs in training. It's a product we've genuinely enjoyed using and are happy to recommend to our puppy families!
