Crating dogs is accepted by all positive reinforcement dog trainers when done correctly. It is a wonderful way to keep them safe while you are not around and is extremely beneficial when potty training because a dog will not go in their crate.Delet This wrote:Cuz she can YouTube anywhere and more Music industry and more christians and closer friend and it's cheaper it's all covered up thread.She bought a place in Nashville. Wow. Why??? She has to know deep down that she won't be there that long.
As a dog lover it's so dangerous storing pets in cargo and I don't agree with crating them at night or when out. And I don't agree all yorkies wear diapers/can't be house broken. I have a yorkie and was a groomer with a dog day care for years and never encountered or heard that in my life.
Some dogs get anxious when left alone in a big house and a crate can be a safe haven for them. I am currently listening to my neighbor's dog HOWL which is what he does ALL. DAY. LONG. when left home alone and I truly believe that if he were properly crate trained it would help with anxiety. (because happy calm dogs don't howl)
I've started leaving my 2 year old dog out when I make short trips to the grocery store because I don't think dogs need to be crated forever, and sometimes I'll get home and she'll be hanging out in her crate with the door wide open.
I do agree that if you have dogs you just need to accept the fact that you'll have to drive to your destination because shipping dogs as cargo is totally inhumane.
Remember how nasty Nikki's apartment was? those dogs never got potty trained and Bowser would dig up the carpet when they weren't home. All things that could be fixed with properly crate training (which goes well hand in hand with potty training), and exercise. Because it's obvious that Bowser does not get enough exercise.
