[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In Sweden:
You can not enclose your dog in any crate or confined space with a door. You can close off an open space (room or hall). The dog must be able to freely move around.

Dogs must have water available at all times.

You can not leave a dog unattended for more than six hours

You can not tie up or tether your dog indoors

You cannot use bark collars / shock collars.

That is insane and would disqualify 80% of pet owners in this country. Is that really what you want?[/quote]

Lots of people do this and manage fine. They leave their dogs during the day in dog proofed rooms (if untrained) or free to roam in the house and they have a dog walker come once or twice to take the dog out. Many people all over the world don’t crate their puppies and dogs all day while at work and all night while they sleep. It is very possible to have a dog in the USA and treat it humanely, as they do in Sweden and in many areas of the world. The views on the benefits of keeping dogs crated on this thread represent a very very narrow range of views. [/quote]
