W-Help-ing
W-Help-ing makes a whelping box for dogs that is designed to be used for one or two home litters and then recycled, so there is nothing to scrub, store or find room for between litters.
Whelping Box for Dogs
From £31.99The W-Help-ing Whelping Box for Dogs is sturdy corrugated cardboard with a splashproof internal coating, a wax-lined cardboard base insert to prolong the life of the floor, and protective chew rails along the top edges. Three puppy rails, often called pig rails, are included in the price, and the sides are marked to show where they fit. It arrives flat packed, assembles at home, and is made from fully recyclable materials.
It comes in three sizes, Small 24in × 24in × 13in, Medium 36in × 36in × 16in and Large 48in × 48in × 18in, and we suggest setting it up around two weeks before the due date. It is a temporary birthing box for home use rather than a heavy-duty washable box for repeated professional breeding. Line it with an Inconti-Pet washable pad and a layer of Vetfleece, both sold separately, and mum has her own space ready for the litter.
