[quote=Anonymous]I have a very excitable large dog. He's 7. No amount of training and hard exercise has trained the hyperactivity out of him. When he's too hyper with the guests, in his crate he goes with a treat. When he's calmer, he's let out to socialize politely. At night, or during thunderstorms, he goes into his open crate to sleep. If it's too hot in the summer, he goes out again and sleeps next to an A/C vent. I'm an animal biologist and have absolutely no problems with this concept of a "cage". Humans' fear of cages comes from their association with prison, criminality and mistreatment of animals. My dog, as well as my other pets, are royally cared for and not mistreated. Humans who are afraid of cages need to reframe their thinking here. [/quote]
