When dog training takes you on adventures....

I'd say handling business from a beach in the sunshine state isn't all that bad.

Did you know obedience training is only a small part of the training process. Schedule, resouce access, routine, kennel/crate training and management of problematic behaviors are all part of the process.

I recently had a client not understanding the use of a kennel or crate. The first questions that comes to mind.

What age did you allow toddlers or small children free access to your home?
Without a crib, pack and play, baby gates, playpen, child proof locks, have you ever seen a child who doesn't learn to sit in a child seat?

A crate or kennel to a dog gives them several things:

Security in a new and sometimes scary place. A safe space.

A place to decompress after training.

A place to slow those mental gears down. A huge issue with highly active dogs with fast twitch muscle and Fixed Action Patterns, those gears never get to slow down unless we mechanically intervene or provide a working role... the kennel or crate is often times a transition tool to learning to settle in the home.

Separation and other behavioral issues. We can use the crate to help reset.

Transitions we use the crate to control transitions and predict next activities.

Potty training in puppies.

Another huge reason is because in the event of an emergency, flood, fire, accidents, hurricane, tornado or where owners require someone else to care for their pups. The dog feels way more settled. Lastly in the event you have to go to the vet for an emergency. A dog learning to settle in a crate is alot less stressed and relaxed than a dog that has never learned how to and Vets are super appreciative when the pet requires crate or kennel rest for an injury.

Truth is we use our crates or kennels as a training tool and it is just as much part of the process as a leash or collar...

There are several resources and references regarding the use of a crate or kennel.

We arent just training dogs, we provide experiences, life skills and socialization, regular beach trips are part of it for us⛱️ our clients enjoy this added value, Training is only one part of the equation the other is day to day living outside the training environment. Adding in normal stressors and new experiences is all part of our process.
