Crate Training Your Dog
Dog Training -
Crate training is a very useful tool for a variety of situations. If you have a new dog or puppy, you can use the crate to limit his access to the house until he learns what he can and can’t chew on and where he can and can’t eliminate. It will also prevent your dog from engaging in unwanted behaviors (like rummaging through the garbage while you’re at the store or in the shower). A crate is a safe way of transporting your dog in the car and gives you the ability to take him places where he can’t run freely. If you properly train your dog to use a crate, he’ll think of it as his safe place and will be happy to spend time there when needed.
