Rabbit Cage Anyone ever kept their yorkie in a rabbit cage in the early training stages for sanitary reasons? I say that because ina rabbit cage the pup wont be walking in its pee and poop if he doesn go potty in his cage? Just a thought and an idea the breeder gave me... |

Dosen't a rabbit cage have a wire bottom? Isn't that like the cages they use in a pet store where the poor animal can't walk without falling between the wire? Dog's are suppose to NOT pee and poop in a crate. Normally they learn to hold it in there because they are clean animals and don't want to sleep where they potty however they need to be taken out on a timely basis so they can releive themselves. I would never put a Yorkie or any other kind of dog in a rabbit cage! They have no place to lay down either without lying on the wire. That is cruel. I think you may have misunderstood.

No bc it could cut there feet. Only Puppy mills keep or put there dogs in a rabbit cage.... if a breeder gave you that Idea.. then they dont truly love there babys... |
It will also make training a nightmare. A friend of mine bought a pet store puppy and never could get it trained. She would take it outside, and it would just play and play .... and never potty. She would bring it back inside and it would play and play. She would put it in the crate and it would immediately pee and poop in its crate. Happened every single time!!! The poor little dog never could understand what it was doing was wrong. Cuz, that is what it was trained to do .... |
My fiancee bought my a puppy from a kennel for Christmas and she's had a very hard time w/potty training. She would run in and go in her kennel because that's what she was used to. It's not a habit you want to get into. It's taken a lot of hard work to get her to not pee in her crate and now it's 40 percent of potties outside and 60 percent on my floor.. |
Ok I think I did misunderstand because the crate she showed me didnt have a wire bottom it looked like a dog crate... With my previous yorkie we just used a crate and thats what I plan to do again... just put the divider up and he should be fine!!! Sorry for the wrong description!! I dont think she meant any cruel by it!! |
