Eight hinged panels means you are not committed to a shape. Run it as an octagon in the middle of a room, fold it into a long rectangle down the side of a sofa, or open it out against a wall so the wall does one side of the work. That flexibility is the whole point — most pens give you one footprint and expect the room to accommodate it.

Each panel is 80cm wide and 60cm tall, built from 15mm square steel tube with wire infill, so it stands up on its own rather than relying on being pushed against furniture. There is a lockable door, which saves stepping over it forty times a day, and ground stakes in the box for outdoor use — pushed into grass they stop a bored puppy shunting the whole pen across the lawn.

• Eight panels, each 80cm wide x 60cm high
• 15 x 15mm square steel tube with wire infill
• Lockable walk-through door
• Ground stakes included for outdoor stability
• Wire spacing 4cm horizontal, 20cm vertical
• Suitable indoors or out; quick to set up and take down

Be realistic about the height. At 60cm this is a boundary, not a lid. PawHut rate it for small dogs under 10kg and under 31cm at the shoulder, and that rating is about jumping, not weight — a fit terrier or a determined puppy will clear 60cm if sufficiently motivated. Use it where you can still see them, not as a substitute for supervision.

Who it's for: Puppy owners through the chewing-everything months, small-dog households wanting a safe corner, and anyone needing a portable boundary for the garden or a holiday cottage.
