And also even to use it as a crate or training method providing the dog still gets to go inside one's house and gets tons of love and attention and family socialization. ABSOLUTELY - yorkies love to be with their people/owners and love attention and it's important that they receive tons of it! 
However, I don't see a difference at all between using a safe garage vs. a living room when one is not home. I also think it's absurd to not allow your dog in your house at all. That's where people spend a bulk of their time and if you can't allow your dog to be in your house with you then you should have never gotten a dog to begin with.
I just think that all the facts are not known with the OP and not enough information was provided and it's unfair and rude for people to jump to conclusions and say nasty things. Now if the OP said the puppy is confined in the garage the time and not allowed in the house at all - well then of course that's just awful! |
I cannot believe what you just said
If this is how you feel about pet ownership then you my friend should not own a dog! I am just speechless that you even would suggest that you puppy or dog should spend time locked in a crate in the garage! Speechless
Then to go on and call names! Wow!
