Some people have to because the dog will destroy the house. I totally believe in crate training. I love my dogs just as much as anyone. But there is a thing of either having them crated when i am not home and coming home to the house as I left it, or leaving them out of the crate and finding my house torn to bits when I return. I know a few people that have had thousands of dollars worth the damage done to their house because they didn't believe in crating thier dogs. they have since changed the way they think about them. |
