What Is Crate Training?
Crate training is a process of teaching a dog to accept a dog crate. A dog crate is essentially a plastic or metal cage that is just a bit bigger than your dog. It’s designed to be a safe place for your dog - somewhere that they can relax on their own and somewhere that they can stay when you need to keep them in one place, for instance when you are out of the house or otherwise unable to keep an eye on your dog.
