So I read in someone's post they were going to try crate games and it got me curious as to what they are. I looked them up and was able to find information about their use but does anyone know of good websites or books that discuss them more in detail?

Our little girl is TERRIFIED of her crate to the point she shakes the minute I pick her up and go near it, mainly in the morning when she knows I have to leave for work. My boyfriend has gotten to the point that it's easier for him to let her get full run of the bedroom with Geno and is always finding excuses not to crate her at night. Obviously, this is an issue me and my boyfriend need to sort out because I am all for crate training her. I feel bad that she is so scared of her crate but I really am hoping that maybe crate games will help. She also has seperation anxiety so maybe crate games will help her calm down as well knowing that the crate is a safe place to hangout while we're away.
