How to put a dog to sleep in a crate

1. The cage must be larger than the dog, at least there must be room for the dog to turn around in the cage, and the size of the dog when it grows up should also be considered.

3. Don't just put a tray in the cage, at least put a small cushion, the dog will feel more comfortable lying on it. I'd better add another layer of memory foam padding.

4. Don't throw the dog into the cage or lock it into the cage as soon as it comes up. It will be resistant, so don't do anything that will make it fear the cage.

5. Do not train for more than 10-15 minutes a day, because the dog will feel bored and do not want to learn later. You can disperse the training for 10-15 minutes in the morning and evening, but not for more than 15 minutes in a row.

6. In the first month of contact with the cage, never lock the cage.

7. When the cage is just locked at the back, you must be outside and let it see you, no more than 5 minutes at a time.

8. Never open the cage when it is whining or barking. Take advantage of the gap when it is not whining, even if it is only for two seconds, let it out during these two seconds.

9. Even if it gets used to it in the future and can stay in it for a long time, don't lock the cage at ordinary times, keep it open all the time, and throw more toys in it.

Benefits of crating dogs

1. It is conducive to the training of dogs' daily habits. Especially for puppies who have not grown up, keeping them in a cage can cultivate their correct living habits very well.

2. It can prevent the dog from defecating anywhere when the owner is not at home, and it can also prevent the dog from damaging some furniture and facilities at home.

3. The dog's activity area is limited, and there will be no dog hair everywhere in the house, and the owner can clean it relatively easily.

4. For dogs with a vicious appearance or a large size, keep them in a cage, and you can also restrain their dog temper appropriately.
