[quote=Anonymous]Why not leave the puppy in a play-yard/x-pen/play pen with water, pee pad, and toys? Given it's a small-breed dog, you could easily do that instead of using a crate. I mean, seriously, could YOU hold it all day if you were in a CAGE? Crates are old school, people. My friend is a dog trainer and sees a lot of dogs with issues that started when they were puppies and were crated all day. It's not even just the crating--it's the lack of mental and social stimulation all day. I can't believe how many of you find crating acceptable! Don't get a dog if you can't afford a dog walker or doggie day care and if you're gone all day. [/quote]
