But in another forum i said about the crate trainning and it was a huge thing!!!! People said that I just wasn't a bad mommy to my dogs, but also to my 2 year old daughter... It hurted my feelings so so much!!!! I felt like a monster... And started to wonder if I am really that bad canine and humane mommy!  |
Welcome to YT.
Someone in another forum said you were a bad pet owner and mother to your daughter because you crate train your dog? is that correct?
If that is what was said to you then I cant even begin to explain how ridiculous that is!
Crate training is in NO WAY cruel, you said yourself that your dog has no problem going in the crate to nap.
Crate training is probably one of the quickest and easiest way to potty train your dog, I know Poppy has come on leaps and bounds in her training since I started crating her.
Please do not listen to whatever idiot said those things to you, and I have no idea where they got the thought you were a bad mother to your daughter because of a dog crate!
Good luck in the training, you will see how well crate training has worked for everyone here.
