My personal recommendations
Here is a list of some things I use and love. Please remember these are just recommendations and please do whatever works best for you and your family. We use playpens at our house more than crates in the beginning. We just like the puppy having a safe place to call their own along with having room to play and a place to potty when work or life take you away from the house for a while. This is the food your pup will be on we do free choice food, but feel free to make a schedule it helps with potty training.
Food:This is the food we feed all our mommy’s & babies. Victor did have a recall in fall of 2023… prior to this I had been feeding it for 6+ years. Thankfully none of my dogs were affected by the recall. I did use purina pro plan 30/20& diamond naturals & 4Health during the recall but eventually went back to Victor and am happy with this food. I recommend the yellow bag for adult schnauzers because it is low in fat. Our puppies are on the high pro plus and do wonderful on it. (food)
This is the litter box and litter we use. And 2 different play pens one a little more heavy duty. The waterproof mats are a lifesaver as a liner to go under the playpen. Please let me know if you have any questions.

As u know the babies are litter box trained so if u wish to continue this until they are 4 months old “the age they can start controlling their bathroom habits” these are some things I use. A cheap play pen allows puppy to move play and potty while keeping up on healthy habits.
Litter box I get them from TSC or any farm store they are actually rabbit trays and super cheap but work great.
