Tedi found corrugated plastic on the internet, and then found a local source.
They have large sheets, and you score it where you want to bend it, and then
fold it to the shape you want. It washes off, and Tedi used duct tape to hold
the shape of a whelping box. It weighs nothing and is stronger than cardboard.
When she told them what she wanted it for, they were so pleased they scored it
for her, and didn't charge her for it. It worked great.
Since we haven't had a litter in two years, we haven't used it again. But, we
have a bitch in whelp, so maybe we will dig it out of the garage.

Dura-whelp.... They make outstanding whelping boxes! They are made out of
cardboard, and they use wood railings for the edges to keep mom from laying on
pups, when you are done the box folds up quickly and you put it back in the
box! Cost about 200 bucks, money well spent Ed

I am thinking about making a whelping box until I can afford this Jonart box. I
would like it to be durable for at least two years so I will be able to get
this one.
Does anyone have any suggestions on wood types and do you recommend to finish
the wood with a safe paint/finishing? Thank you in advance. Angela
