[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I work 12 hr shifts and my dog is crated while I'm gone. She does fine. I walk her and play with her a lot but not all dogs have that kind of energy level. You can also teach a dog to use a litter box. [/quote] All-day crating is cruel and contrary to the policy of every animal humane society and every animal behavioral expert out there. Please stop this inhumane practice and leave your dog in an enclosed room with a radio on. http://www.aspca.org/Pet-care/virtual-pet-behaviorist/dog-articles/weekend-crate-training http://www.apdt.com/about/ps/crate-training/ http://www.chron.com/life/article/Locking-a-dog-in-a-crate-all-day-is-cruel-3459711.php http://www.stltoday.com/lifestyles/pets/columns/dr-fox/crating-dogs-all-day-is-inhumane/article_5697136c-0a51-503a-8724-08bacf3ee712.html http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2012-04-05/local/35453969_1_separation-anxiety-dogs-grain-alcohol [/quote]
