What size whelping box does 2.5 yr old Lab need?

[lissadi]

Can someone please tell me what size whelping box does a 2 1/2 yr old lab need? I have a plastic pool, but it is a bigger one and I think it is too big, I also have one that I think is too small, what size is just right? Sounds like the 3 bears LOL! She is due to whelp May 30th so I need to get something together.

Thanks for the help.

I used a 5' kiddy pool and it worked great! Yikes, only a week left...better get going...unlike me and wait until the last minute. Is this your first litter?

My mother had heard the kiddie pool works so she bought one for Sharon....
just a bit too big Grnadma!

Yes, my female just turned 2 in February so we got her hips and eye cert. 4 days after her hip X-ray she went into heat and we bred her to a Field Champion, am very excited as both she and the stud have awesome pedigrees. I am going to keep one of her pups. Or I should say my "son" is keeping one. I have a yellow lab, a black and I bought a chocolate that I am picking up on Monday. So I have the colors of a lab rainbow. Nothing could get any better than that. We are into hunting dogs needless to say.

How exciting! Did you get the results back from her OFA yet? Sometimes, the results are thrown off when they're in season.

Yea! I know tons of people who used kiddie pools. That would probly be the best.
