I ended up having to pad out their crate with loads of blankets. They also loved having a blanket draped over the crate like a little cave - I think it makes them feel more secure. I'm really looking forward to seeing photos of your little pup very soon.
Aww lovely photo this afternoon i ordered the exact same snuggle pet! With heat pad to go inside, so i am hoping she will like it as much as your two little ones do

Thanks
I would feed her in the crate, and she has water 24/7. But use a heavy bowl or a special clip on crate bowl as has been mentioned. Also I put a folded blanket on the top as it makes the crate like a little den, which I believe makes her feel safe and secure. As for the name, my 14 year old daughter chose Lola and I liked it straight away.

Skye is a lovely name. My two loved their snuggle pet and I too had the heat disc which went inside but only used it a few times.
I sadly threw the snuggle pet away when they suddenly decided to 'kill' it when they were about 5 months old but they suddenly became very attached to it and often tried to 'hump' it and would growl at each other through jealousy if one was snuggled up and wouldn't let the other one get a look in - but it served its purpose, and you of course won't have the problem of jealousy

I bought a bowl which has a screw plate to attach it - I think I got it from Pets at Home rather than the one that just loops over the bars as they soon realised they could put their head under it and knock it off.
