I have been using the fleece-type beds for my puppies since they have been 
crated.  My boy has now developed a "taste" for this, and anything else I might 
put on the floor of his crate - he will chew it up and/or eat it.  Yesterday I 
discovered that he'd eaten some of his bed and then thrown it up - can't be 
good for his tummy, and I worry about blockages.  So, what are some other 
options for him to use as a crate bed?  I feel sorry for him today - he has 
nothing but the plastic pan to sleep on, but I don't trust him with anything 
else I have for a bed.  I'm afraid to use newspapers b/c that's what I lined 
their kennel run with when they were little, and I think he might figure it's 
ok to potty on them - he's been doing so well w/crate training thus far I'm 
afraid to set him up to take as step backwards.  Any suggestions?  He's almost 
6 months old, and finished with teething for the most part - I don't think it's 
related to that - and he has a Nylabone in his crate (which he loves!) so he 
has somehting to chew on while he's in there.  HELP!!
