I use his carrier for crating him, so maybe he is associating his carrier with going to the vet. But I heard after some time they get used to their crate and they enjoy being in there...but how long does that take (usually)? He was sleeping in there today with the door open so I thought he was getting used to it. Any how if anyone could let me know if this normal and he'll be ok? thanks
it took mocha quite awhile to get used to her crate-a couple of weeks. i just left it open all day with my bedroom closed so she would have access to it whenever she wanted. i put treats and her favorite toys in there, plus a tshirt with my scent on it, if i'm gone pretty much all day. she seems to take to it whenever she wants a quiet place to stay, but she sleeps with me in my bed at night.
