I would have to agree with Connie. I also crate my yorkie occasionally
because I love him with all of my heart and I want him to be safe.
I have a cat that has caught rabbits bigger than he is and he likes
to play with that cat so if I am not there to monitor the situation
I would hate to come home to a dead or hurt dog. My other dogs
use crates sometimes too and as others have said they find comfort
in having their own space and go to them on their own when they
want or need that space and I think that is as healthy as when I
want space and go to my room. I don't want to get into the big
conflict that seems to be going on with the subject but I find it hard
to understand why people can't let it go when someone does something
a little bit different than what they might...As humans in general we
do lots of things different. If what your doing works for you then
great but why debate others over something that works for them?
Telling people how to run there lives has never really gone over
very well in my opinion so how about moving on and letting it go....
