Help with crate for dog recovering from surgery

Hi my Topsy 8 year old, mixed poodle yorkie, 9kg dog, had cruciate ligament band surgery Friday.
He himself is doing well, taking all meds and resting, But obviously can't jump onto furniture, stairs etc.
I'm carrying him outside and letting him wee/poop which he does.
My other dog an 18 month old chi is a nightmare since Topsy had surgery he just will not leave Topsy alone, totally obsessed, even in the night every 20 mins I'm waking up to chi dog pestering Topsy.
We need a safe soft crate for Topsy to recover in peace and away from the chi dog.
The chi dog is put to his bed and removed constantly but it's hard as leaving Topsy alone to deal with chi dog means Topsy wants to get onto furniture which is a no no.
Topsy is on 3 weeks downtime totally.
Stitches out on day 12.
I need to leave house on school runs and have been putting Topsy in the kitchen and leaving chi dog in lounge.
Crate help really appreciated as we are at the moment sleeping with Topsy between us to keep him from jumping anywhere and to monitor him not touching his bandage.

This was suggested on a dog forum, so so pleased, Topsy is happily snoozing in it already, and bonus little dog has no way of getting near him and pestering him.
Cheaper than I expected to pay so a total bonus.#JusticeForGrenfell0 -

Good, glad the problem is solved and hope Topsy is up and around soon.Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!
