For a crate-trained dog, being put in a cage is not a punishment. On the contrary, they will use the cage as their own safe haven. Try the following methods to train your dog so that he is no longer afraid of going into the crate.

To many people, a dog crate looks like a prison, but for those dogs who have known cage training since childhood, the dog crate is their favorite and the safest place to stay. The cage should be the most comfortable place. Never put your dog in a cage for no reason, as they will see it as punishment. (Why many dogs cannot adapt to their owners’ orders is because whether the paparazzi can come out or not, it is also regarded as a punishment. In this case, when they come out, they will cause trouble. Although they know they will be punished, the big deal is just (It’s just in a cage.) Crate training can make indoor training more successful, reduce the potential destructive behavior of paparazzi, and make it easier for your dog to go out with you. If you have time to refer to some foreign dog-raising books, it is also strongly recommended to start crate training (CRATE TRAINING) when puppies are young.

Before starting cage training, first lay a soft cushion in the cage, put a water bottle, some fun toys and chewable bones, and the cage door must be open.

Order the dog into the cage, and then use delicious biscuits to lure it into its new nest. The cage door must be open so the puppy can get out at any time.

Once your puppy gets used to the crate, he will go in on his own without your urging.

When the puppy is having fun in the cage, close the cage door for a few minutes. But the dog crate should be placed in a busy area of ​​the home, such as the kitchen.

The puppy fell asleep in the safe dog cage after relaxing all over. A puppy that is crate trained should not be kept in the crate for more than two hours during the day (unless it is absolutely necessary, but let the puppy out as soon as he gets home from work).

After getting used to the crate, the puppy will be willing to stay in the playpen. Some dogs cannot tolerate the small space of a dog crate, but this problem is less likely to occur if you are a puppy.

For many new dog owners, the puppy urinates and defecates everywhere after arriving home, and many people are often helpless about this. I asked friends for advice, searched online, and tried my best to solve the problem. I'm here to tell you a stupid way, it doesn't hurt to try it.

First of all, you'd better put the puppy in a separate small room. If there are no conditions, then you should separate the puppy in a separate area with a fence in the room. Limit your puppy’s range of activities. Cover the floor where the puppy is with newspapers so that the puppy can only pee on the newspaper. At first, leave the newspapers with urine stains on them, and remove the feces and replace them with new newspapers in a timely manner. Next, gradually reduce the number of newspapers on the ground, first remove newspapers from places where the puppy eats and sleeps, and then gradually expand the scope of removing newspapers. After a period of restriction, the puppy gradually became accustomed to solving big and small problems on newspapers.That’s it.

Then, you can start outdoor training. You can take the dog outdoors and lay a newspaper on the place where you want it to urinate to let it excrete. If the puppy obeys, you should praise and reward it in time. In this way, you can quickly achieve the purpose of training the puppy to excrete in a fixed place. It's a stupid idea, but that's how I teach my puppy to be a gentleman.
