Why Choose The Paws Room?
You've heard crates are recommended, but...
You don’t want your dog to feel confined, anxious or isolated. What if crate training feels stressful for both of you?
And traditional wire crates? They can feel cold, cage-like and completely out of place,
We design calming, furniture-quality spaces inspired by a dog’s instinct to seek safety, connection and routine.
Teddy supports positive crate associations, better sleep and a more settled family life.
Beautiful at home. Comforting for your dog.
What changes when your dog has their own space
More settled bedtimes
A familiar place to switch off at the end of the day.
Greater confidence during toilet training
Supporting consistency from the very beginning.
More predictable daily routines
Helping dogs understand what comes next.
Support during recovery
Encouraging rest when they need it most.
More harmony throughout the home
Giving every family member a space of their own.
"I’m a big advocate of crate training dogs. It gives them a safe, calm space to rest, supports toilet training, prevents wandering, and helps them learn to be alone, reducing the risk of separation anxiety later on."

Loved by Families
"Loving the safe space our Buddy playpen provides to our active little puppy. It’s stylish, durable, beautifully finished and looks great in the house all whilst keeping him out of mischief when he can’t be supervised.Exactly what we were after!"
"Our little lady Cherry has taken to her new crate seamlessly. Just love the aesthetic, it make the room feel so much more complete."
"We’ve had crates before, but nothing like The Paws Room. The old wire ones always felt out of place in our home and never really offered comfort. This one is modern, cosy, and blends right in with our décor — it looks like it belongs here."
"Thoughtfully designed to accommodate our little puppy and to grow with him as he gets bigger."
"We love the look and functionality of this crate! It fits so seamlessly with our new home! We were on the hunt for a crate that offered comfort, but also added to the style of our living space, so we were delighted to find The Paws Room."

When introduced positively and used appropriately, many dogs benefit from having a calm, secure space of their own.
Crates can support:
- puppy training and toilet routines
- better sleep and settling
- recovery after illness or surgery
- safer introductions to new environments
- calmer daily routines and boundaries
Many dogs naturally seek den-like spaces to rest and feel secure. The key is ensuring the crate is introduced gradually, associated positively and never used as punishment.
At The Paws Room, we believe crates should feel like a safe retreat rather than confinement, with thoughtful design that helps dogs stay connected to the home while still having a space of their own.
Puppies chew. Shoes, paper, lego and yes, even furniture! Dogs start teething when they are a few months old and this went on with our dogs until they were about 18 months old (especially when they got bored or anxious).
Dedicated enrichment toys can help (for example our Pebble enrichment toy or Twirl lick mat). We recommend using the puppy proof side guards with Teddy, especially for young dogs and chewers, to protect the birch plywood from sharp teeth. Our crate covers are the best option for heavy chewers, as they elegantly disguise the robust wire crate inside.
