re: Pet owners question: crate training and leaving dog out to roam

quote:

---

A properly crate trained dog won't have any issues being crated for many hours at a time, they just go in and go to sleep until you come home. That's what mine does. I don't even close the door, she just goes in, lays down, goes to sleep, and when I come home, she's still in there. Trained correctly, they don't see it as a cage, it's their own special place they cherish.
