A Guide To Puppy Crate Training

So you've just arrived home with your new puppy. Puppies are very cute, so it is easy to fall into the habit of letting your puppy do whatever he pleases. This can lead to behavior problems and undesirable traits when the puppy becomes an adult. The best way to combat this is to begin training early and a great way to do this is with crate training!     What Is Crate Training? Crate training is teaching the puppy to associate the crate or cage with comfort and security. It is also a useful tool in aiding toilet training, self control, anxiety and separation issues. It is also very beneficial when traveling, preparing for vet/grooming visits and generally providing a safe place where your puppy can settle and relax. What Crate Should I Choose? When choosing a crate make sure that it is the correct size for your puppy. They should always have enough space to stand up, lie down, stretch out and turn around. Anticipate how large your puppy may grow and choose accordingly.
