Could the dog get into a playpen?
I have no doubt she could dacholstar... she probably chew numerous holes straight through it and then throw it round the yard a bit for good measure!! Good idea if she wasn't such a destruct-a-staffy.

sj I'm not sure if that's an old wive's tale or not, but I don't want to take that chance ykwim?

ETA- Just saw your ETA dachlostar.... maybe I am being a bit paranoid here?
