We bought this for our new Longhaired Chihuahua puppy. It's big enough for her food, bed, and potty pads but not too big in our small house. She loves to go in it when she has had enough playing and, it's helping us house train her. She doesn't wine in it at night. It's great when we leave the house. I love how the top is open so she is not so closed off away from us when she is in it. Great Purchase!
