Crate Training Your Dog

[Christy]

Very nice dog crate training article! I don't know that we'd have two of our three dogs had it not been for crates.

Its very informative. Thanks for that. As a trainer I suggest crate training but at times we need to be careful because the pooch may form some bad habits if the crate is too big or if it is left for a longer period in the crate. It can also cause the age old problem of whining.

Gremilen likes his crate but everytime we put a pillow or blanket in with him he destroys it I dont know what his deal is but it cost me a nice chunk of change

The crate training worked EXCELLENT with my two dogs. We reward them with a small bisquit for going in the crate. At night, all we say is "time to go night night" and they both go running into their crate.

Thats the way Oreo is. Anything you put in the crate with her is destroyed by morning.
It's harder for us to get her out of that habit because she was originally a stray so we got her when she was almost a year. It's much easier to break them from that when they're puppies by pointing their heads to the chewed up mess and saying "no! bad!"
and in the morning, if everything is still intact, say "good girl/boy" and pet him or her.

Thank you for the Information. I trained my Dog as per to your crade training article, While during training i focus on responses which dogs give to me and then i will easily understand him. My dog is young and i have still time to train him.
