You have to put yourself in Chewys place and think about what kind of life does he have? In a small crate for 10 hrs a day, Plus how many hours at night is he in this crate? asumming its 8 hrs so you can sleep does this mean he is crated for 18 hrs out of a 24 hr day. IMO this isnt much of a life. What if you were put in a tiny space for this many hours, day in and day out with no bathroom and human contact, I have a feeling you would act out when you got out for a few hours also. I am not trying to be mean or sound mean. I am just stating facts, This isnt the kind of life a puppy deserves. Maybe you should try to think of something to get him out of the crate more often( a kid to come over and play with him after school) and if ithats impossible, Maybe rehoming. As I said I am not trying to be mean just trying to get you to see thats its really bordering on being cruel to keep a dog crated for this many hrs hours out of a 24 hr day. Doesnt Chewy deserve better? |
