If I just run out to get the mail and leave him alone inside he freaks out!!!! He wouldnt know what to do alone in this house!! The crate is his den and thats the way dogs look at it also.... it is a very good idea to crate train read up about it!!! Also we travel alot and he rides in his crate on the long trips for his safety and he has no problem with it!! I hope with this post you see the advantages to crate training! |
I'm sorry if this comes off a bit rudely but first, I never said that there were NO advantages to crate training, operative word being training. secondly, you just posted that your dog freaks out if you get the mail and can't be home alone...what advantages am i missing here?!
