Again, it may have been in the past that the show dogs weren't allowed to play and be a dog but all the ones I see and that I'm around and that's alot...they have either free fun of the house or a huge dog room and not caged or crated... |
Well I only know a couple that keep crated, not let outside, etc, but the other folks I know the majority do wrap, but they play inside, outside,etc although truly only know my breeder and I that take the dogs hiking, n swimmin, n stuff.
You've been in this a very long time so would know best how it goes.
