Why Dog Crates Are Not Dog Cages #30

In this episode, I am talking about one of my favourite things to train. If you love your dog, I'm asking you to listen with an open mind, because we're talking about comfort with confinement, a topic inspired by a note from one of my online students.

In the episode you'll hear:

• Why should you care about crating your dog.
• About the importance of safety for your puppy or dog.
• The one thing that makes comfort with confinement essential for your dog's well being.
• How to help dogs with separation anxiety.
• What type of crate to use for your dog and how I choose my crates.
• Where you should put your puppy's crate.
• How I use a "gated community" that combines a crate and ex-pen.
• Why to be intentional about crating.
• How long your dog or puppy should be in a crate.
• The time to invest in helping your dog be comfortable with confinement.
• Why not to be in a hurry to close the crate door.
• The progressions to ensure crate comfort and security for your dog.
