Crate Training Your Dog
Firstly, you want your dog to behave everywhere you take him or her. You want them to know what to do and what not to do in order to not cause any trouble in your house and in public.
This is why you train your dog. You train them to obey your commands and you train them to discipline them.
However, you may think that training your dog is a very hard and time consuming thing to do. But, the fact is, dog training can be very easy if you have the patience and dedication for it.
Crate training your dog is one of the best things you can do to prevent them from being a nuisance indoors. A kennel crate is an effective housebreaking tool and can really help reduce separation anxiety, prevent unwanted behaviors (such as chewing your rug or furniture) and keep them away from dangerous household items (poisonous chemicals, electrical wires). A kennel crate is also a great tool in moving your dog indoors and outdoors.
The first thing you should know about kennel crates is that it should never be used as a tool for punishing your dog. This is because most dogs spent some time in a kennel crate before you took them home. This means that your dog will consider a kennel crate as their hang out or a place to rest.
Getting your dog used to the kennel crate can be very useful and convenient. So, here are the ways on how to crate train your dog:
Firstly, you have to choose what type of kennel crate you want for your dog. There are basically two kinds of kennel crate available. The first is the Vari-Kennel Type and the second is called the Wire Mesh Type.
In the Vari-Kennel Type, you have to first take the crate apart by removing the screws, the top and the door. This will allow your pup to go in and out the bottom half of the crate. After they get a little used to it, you can now put the top back in its place. This may require you to exercise this step for a few days or in some cases, just several hours. However, if your pup accepts the crate right away, you can omit this step and move on to the next.
With the wire mesh type, you just have to tie the crate back door allowing it to stay open without shutting it close or moving. If this type of crate comes with a floor pan, it is wise that you should put a towel or cardboard underneath it to prevent it from rattling and scaring your dog away.
Once your dog has accepted the kennel crate, the next step would be putting in your dog's favorite toys and some dog treats at the far end of the crate opening. An example of a great toy for your dog is a ball. It should be large enough so that your dog cannot swallow it and it should be inedible. If the dog's chewing has separated a piece of the toy, you should remove it immediately to prevent internal obstruction or choking.
Another great toy for your dog in the crate is by filling a sterilized marrow bone filled with cheese or dog treats. Your dog will surely enjoy this kind of toy and you could get them to play with it for hours.
Water should also be placed inside the kennel crate. Make sure that it is tied firmly on the kennel crate to prevent your dog from spilling the water in it or to play with it.
Your pet's comfort is also important. This is why you should put beddings or towels to create a soft and comfortable bed for your dog. However, if ever your dog chews the beddings or the towel; you should remove it along with the pieces that has been chewed off to prevent them from swallowing and choking on it.
These are the basic things you should do to crate train your dog. Always remember, their comfort should be your number one priority. In order to keep them from feeling lonely or isolated, you should visit them frequently and place the kennel close to where you are.
