Collapsible Playpens

Our Arena Collapsible Playpen is a practical choice for busy dog owners. It has a open-top design that folds down easily for quick storage, so you can reclaim your living space when the playpen isn’t in use. It is also lightweight and portable. This makes it very easy to move with one person when you need to clean the floor underneath or you want to take it with you on holidays.

Playpens with a Roof

Our Retreat Playpen has a wire roof. This gives you peace of mind that your adult dogs won’t be able to jump out of the playpen when you’re not watching. If you have an indoor cat, it stops them from jumping in and stealing your dog’s food.

Why Choose Somerzby’s Collapsible Dog Playpens?

Indoor and Outdoor Use

Somerzby’s heavy-duty playpens are suitable to be used both indoors and outdoors. This is because they are made from quality metal that won’t get damaged or rusty when exposed to the outdoor elements. This is beneficial for dog owners who are looking to use their playpen for their puppy to safely play outside, then bring it inside to use as a quiet nap area in the lounge room.

What is a Dog Playpen and What is it Used For?

A dog playpen is a safe space to contain your puppy or small dog. It gives them an area where they can rest, eat and play by themselves.

The primary purpose is so owners can leave their pup unsupervised without having to worry about it causing damage to their house, peeing on their carpet or getting into trouble. Essentially, it saves you from having to puppy-proof your entire house!

A playpen is better than a crate for longer periods, as it gives your pet more room to move around and play. Ideally, your playpen setup should include a bed, food and water bowls, interactive toys, and potty pads.

Are Collapsible Playpens Appropriate for Large or Active Dogs?

Somerzby pens are suitable for puppies and small adult breeds. We do not recommend them for large adult breeds or overly active dogs, as they will not have enough space. Additionally, a bigger dog could jump out of a playpen with no roof, potentially making a mess or getting into things while unsupervised.

How to Teach a Puppy to Stay in a Playpen

Introduce your puppy to the playpen gradually, for smaller periods at first and then gradually building up. Create positive associations with the playpen by putting treats and their favourite toys inside. You want the playpen to be a happy place and never an area for punishment.

Keep in mind that you can’t leave a new puppy in a playpen the entire day. We recommend only leaving it in for a few hours, then taking it out of the playpen to the toilet outside and having a run around. You can then pop your puppy back in for a few hours of rest alone.

FAQ

Can I attach my dog playpen to a crate or use it as a room divider?

Unfortunately, none of our playpens are designed to attach to a crate. For puppies and toy breeds, you could place a small crate inside the Arena instead of a bed.

The Arena Playpen opens at one side but all the other sides are joined on a hinge. It can open out to be one long fence, so you can use it to block off larger rooms you don’t want your puppy to access. You can also join multiple Arena’s together to create one large area.

Can multiple dogs or puppies use the same exercise pen?

Most playpens can accommodate a litter of new puppies or a couple of small breed adult dogs. For adults, monitor their interactions the first few days and only continue to house them together if they can get along without supervision.

How do I choose the right playpen size for my dog?

To choose the right playpen size for your dog or puppy, measure their height and length, then check the playpen’s dimensions to ensure it suits them comfortably. You want the playpen to be at least 2 times your dog’s length in both width and depth, plus 15cm taller than they are. If you’re buying for a puppy, consider whether you want the playpen to still fit when they’re fully grown then look at their breed to estimate their adult size and choose the ideal setup accordingly.

Are playpens easy to assemble and move?

Our playpens assemble without any tools and any stress! This makes them easy to disassemble if you need to transport or store them when not in use. The Arena is less than 10kg so it is easy to move with just one person and the Retreat is nearly 25kg so it is recommended to be lifted by 2 people.
