There are many benefits to crate training your dog, including:
- A calm, happy dog. A crate is a den for your dog, so he feels safe and secure. When he’s in his crate, he can relax and rest without the stress of being left alone. He will learn that the crate is his special place to go when he needs it.
- Good behavior when guests come over or when you’re gone from home. If you have well-behaved dogs and they are used to being crated, they will be content while you have guests over or leave them alone at home. This can give you peace of mind knowing that they won’t destroy anything while you’re out of the house or sleeping at night.
- Better potty training results. When used properly during potty training, a crate can make it easier for your puppy to hold it until he gets outside to go potty (instead of going on the floor). This will save you time cleaning up messes and help prevent accidents from happening in the first place!
