Really, you're going to go there? She said at the longest and that that was unusual. Give it a rest with your attacks--she isn't doing anything wrong as far as crating the dog. It's a training issue. Leave him in a smallish room with the crate in it--but with the crate in it. After a few days of finding him in the crate in the morning increase the size of the space. Continue to place treats inside. Eventually you'll be able to place the crate where you usually do and he will trot in on command or on his own. Also, make sure you have a name for it like "home"--so you can tell him to go there and he knows what you mean. Ignore these idiots telling you crating is only for puppies. Some dogs and particularly some breeds have to be crated throughout their lives. People tolerance of destruction of there home and personal effects varies--and I wouldn't be fine with a dog that drag things off the shelf when left alone and bored. Sure some dogs just sleep all day. Lucky you! Some babies breast feed easily and sleep through the night! Yay for you! My airedale had to be crated for the first 18 months of his life whenever we weren't home. Now he's 4 and he's fine--but yeah, stfu about "oh, it's so cruel"… Our dog is happy and loved and he lives like a king.[/quote]
