Dog Crates Have Many Purposes
We got our Siberian Husky when he was six months old. At the time we bought him a dog crate which was fairly large. Now he’s a year old and far too big for the old crate so we’ve bought him another one. It’s massive!
Dog crates are meant to be a safe haven for your dog with some training methods advising that you put your puppy/dog in them for long periods of time. I don’t really believe in this, though I the dog crate did come in handy.
Max used to be a nightmare whenever I cooked; jumping up, licking the side board and often steeling food. I then started putting him in the cage whenever I cooked, at first he made a fuss and lots of noise, but very soon he got used to chilling out while I cooked in peace. We’ve now gotten rid of the dog crate as it was quite space consuming however, Max now knows to behave and leave me to cook in peace.
Another great use for dog crates is to put puppies in at night. According to friends it speeds up the process of teaching your puppy toilet manners. Dogs are unlikely to go to the toilet in what they perceive as their bed and therefore hold it until you get up in the morning. Leaving you to get up with no nasty mess to deal with!
