Is your dog crate trained? 🐶
Dog crates can be great for providing a safe space, keeping pets secure in the house at night, and can even be used for transport too.
During training, you want your dog to learn to see their crate as their own personal den! They'll sleep in there, and it'll be the place they go to feel safe or when they need to rest. So, their training should be a positive and enjoyable experience for them 🥰
To ensure this experience, their crate should never be used as a form of punishment.
And if your dog is a little older, don’t worry. You can crate train both adult dogs and puppies in the same way… Puppies might just get the hang of things a little faster!
