What do you guys suggest using as a lining in a crate for 4 week old puppies (who are all eating solids and growing big ole bellys btw).
I've been using newspaper but it's just not working real well. I'm having to clean the crate every two hours just to keep the smell down.
I want something that'll maybe help keep the puppies cleaner and dryer (they're still at the walking in the water dish stage) but also something to help minimize the smell; at least over night so it's not "knock you dead" in the morning. Something that will last at least one day or two changes per day. I don't want to use blankets or towels because of fleas and how it'll help harbor germs.
Someone suggested using cedar shavings (like for hamster cage) but would this be a good idea? At 4 weeks old, I'm afraid they may try to chew on some of the pieces and I don't want them to injest it.
Suggestions?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
