[quote=Anonymous]So, I never created my dog, golden. And within few weeks he was fine, not chewing on anything or eating off tables or trash even when we were not home.  He had other issues, so I am not pretending he is most perfect dog in the world.  My DH (Western US) never crated his dogs, nor did anybody in Europe, where I am from.  Is this East Coast thing?  Why do you crate your dogs?  What is the benefit? My dog found his place, on the floor by my bed and that is where he stays most of the day while I am at work. He goes back to that spot when I leave and he is there when I come back, without any indication of anything destroyed, moved.  I mean he might get up, but it doesn't seem like he does. At night I will say, "night, night, and he goes straight there. Wouldn't crating be  cruel?  This way if he really has no go at night he will get up and put his head on my bed, by me, rarely happens, almost never but still he can do that. So, what is the benefit of crating? If there is a thread about this already, post me a link? Thanks.[/quote]
