Last week, we ordered a puppy gate for our expectant arrival. This week, we decided that we’d have to order another canine safety accessory; that’s when we went in hunt of fire guards.
We have two wood burning stoves in this cottage and we’re coming into the season where they’re going to be put to use. They have secure, glass doors, so they don’t spit embers out into the room. However, it may take a young puppy a while to realise just how hot and dangerous they can be. To prevent any catastrophes, and until he learns to keep well away, we’ll place a barrier in front of them while they’re chuffing away.
Because storage is at a premium, one that is able to collapse down and fold away when not in use is preferred. I’m completely in love with the antique one from Etsy, it would look fabulous in our house!
