[Dailydrool] crate training

[Saraberry at aol.com]

If your dog doesn't go in the crate, tape the door back or take the door  off 
or take off the top if you can.  NEVER shut the door on a dog who isn't  
comfortably lying down or sitting in the crate to begin with.  If you do,  it will 
more than likely really scare them and they may not go back in willingly  and 
then you have a bigger problem.  
 
Dogs are not toys.  They cannot just be simply shut away with no  
ramifications until you are ready to play with them next.  Can you  imagine what would 
happen if people did that to children?  Especially  puppies.  We teach them that 
the crate is a safe and good place and that  they will have only good things 
there.  That is how dogs learn to like  crates.
 
Stress over something like this can also manifest in a variety of other  very 
nasty ways and you really don't want to go there.

entire family!
