Crate Training Your Puppy | Tips And Tricks

New Puppy?  Crate Train Him With Ease!

That brand-new pup is sweet and cuddly. But, cute only goes so far when he starts to chew and tear into your brand-new pieces of furniture or your shoes. Train doggy to stay in one place when you want him to by using a crate.

Before you start the ball rolling, get it in your mind that crate training isn’t cruel. Without teaching of any kind, your Puppy Dog will grow right into a wildly undisciplined dog. It could be cute for a two-month old pup but it will get old really fast when you have to apologize for his actions.

Puppies also require repetition in order to learn. They’ll get what you will be trying to teach them at some point, however you need to be somewhat methodical at the start. Familiarity also makes them feel comfortable as well as safe in their new home.

The Crate

Deciding on the best crate to use is important. You will find wire ones as well as plastic ones. Wire crates work well for dogs with long hair and in warm climates. It permits adequate air flow so puppy stays comfy.

Plastic crates tend to be perfect for travel and in chillier climates. It stays toasty warm and keeps doggie secure inside the car, train or airplane.

One thing that all crate trainers must remember is that size does make a difference. A crate need just be large enough for the doggie to turn around and stretch. Partitions made from wood or plastic can reduce the size of large crates if you wish to take into account puppy’s eventual mature size. Any time you offer doggy more space than that, he will use the toilet in there rather than outside.

Training

Puppies love to be near people. Start off by putting your crate in the living room or some other spot where your family spends most of their time together. Utilizing a wire crate at this time enables doggie to view his environment.

Introduce your dog to the crate. He may not go in there by himself so he’ll require incentive. Use chewy puppy treats to bring him in for a better look. Allow the fragrance to waft just a few inches in front of him. Any time he is within spitting distance, place the treat in the crate. Praise the pup each time he goes in.

You may also feed puppy inside the crate. This encourages Your Pet to stay inside and is much easier cleanup for you. Shut the door behind the pup. Open up the door when he is almost finished eating. If he comes out close the door again. Open it only if he wants to be let back inside to finish eating.

When your dog is accustomed to staying inside give him more motivation for staying in the crate with the door closed. Use a chew toy to tempt him inside the crate. Shut the door for a maximum of a couple of minutes every time. Call him to come to you when the door is open. Allow him go back and duplicate the process all over again until he is at ease with the door closed.

Crate training keeps doggy safe while you are not at your house and still allows him interact with the family. Learn more about crate training and other helpful free dog training videos by clicking here.
