Dog Crates & Gates

 

Many dog trainers are firm believers in crate training.  The great advantages of crate training a puppy are that it provides a safe place for the puppy away from the routine daily activity, prevents you from attempting to over-train your puppy, and teaches your puppy to hold its stools and urine until you provide him with the appropriate elimination spot. 

 

Crates come in a variety of styles.  Wire collapsible crates are popular as well as the plastic airline-type carriers.  There are advantages to both: the wire crate offers better ventilation and visual freedom.  The wire crates also usually break down and are easy to store when not in use.  Many wire crate manufacturers produce a commercial divider to allow you to make the living space larger as your dog grows in size and responsibility.

 

Plastic crates are usually airline approved and are necessary for dogs traveling by plane.  Puppies of the large-breed variety may need several of these crates during their growth and development.  They are difficult to section off and make smaller, but they tend to be a bit less expensive than some wire types. I have found the plastic airline crates more difficult to escape from and easier to clean.

 

Crates should be placed in an area of your home that is frequented by your family.  Dogs do not fare well when isolated, thus the kitchen seems to be a popular spot.  Kitchen floors are usually easy to clean, so this is a good reason for containing a new dog here.  So the kitchen is a good spot, if you have space for the crate
