This is untrue as long as the pet has adequate exercise and a chance to go outside before placing in the crate. Everyone needs a special place to call his or her own and pets are no different. Many dogs enjoy lying in a darkened area such as under a table or bed. It acts as their own private sanctuary and crates can be the perfect substitute that is beneficial to both you and your pet. Some of the benefits of crate training are a feeling of security and safety for your dog as well as help in training.
Crates are also excellent tools to be used in housebreaking a puppy.
The natural instinct of a dog is to not eliminate in its personal space. By using the crate, a puppy can be taught the proper places to urinate or defecate. Crates can also help to control the cost repairs due to the elimination, chewing, digging, and typical destructive puppy behavior. They can also help the pet become accustomed to traveling, boarding and veterinary care. Care should be taken when choosing a crate.
