Default crate or pen

If you have to leave your pup 4-12 months old for a few hours, would you prefer a pen or a crate ?

Or may be an open door crate within a pen ?

Crate. By the time they're that old, a puppy pen won't hold them. I think 4 months was about the time Kopper started putting his paws on the top of his pen and pushing it over.
