Crate training your dog is super important and making sure you are using the right size crate is crucial! In this video, we will walk you through how to size your crate properly whether you have a puppy or an adult dog! Failure to do so can set your dog back and create many health issues in the long run! • First let's talk about how to determine if your crate is too big for your puppy. If your dog has no potty training issues, this is less of a big deal. However, the majority of the young puppies we train do have these issues, so appropriate sizing is key! Giving your dog too much room gives them more of a chance to cause trouble, or simply walk over a few inches and defecate! • Most dogs under normal circumstances will refuse to go to the bathroom where they sleep. So adjusting the size of the crate or using a smaller crate is best. We want to make sure a puppy has enough room to stand up and lay down without too much room available. How much room we give depends on the age, size, and potty training issues. So make sure you experiment! We give a great example in this video of how much room to give the average puppy! • If you have a puppy who is going to be a big dog when they grow up, we recommend getting crates that have dividers! Dividers work wonders and can save money in the long run so that you don't have to continuously upgrade to a bigger crate size! We generally recommend getting a crate that the adult version or your dog can fit in. Then you can use the crate divider to continuously add more and more room as they continue to grow. • You need to also make sure your crate is not too small for your dog., Not only is this unfair, but can cause some severe health issues! Your dog should be able to stand up without their head hitting the top of the crate. They also should be able to lay down and stand up comfortably. We give a great example of this in this video! This is why we recommend getting a bigger create with a divider instead of forcing a dog to stay in a crate that is too small! • We hope this video gives you some guidance on how to properly fit a crate to our dog. This can be difficult with mutts, as sometimes it is a guess on how big they will be! When in doubt, get a bigger crate and use a divider. Over time, you can gradually give them more and more room! • Did you just get a puppy or a new rescue? If so, please comment below if you have any questions!
