Products Necessary For Crate Training Your Pet

When you bring home that new addition to your family you will need to have a "den haven" for your pet. Not only will this be his/her "den haven", it will keep your home from being destroyed during the early puppy chewing stage and house breaking period. In the next article you will be given all the information you will need to learn the concept of Crate Training your new pet and why it is so important.. Here we will show you the products that are necessary to accomplish this technique successfully.



Midwest Dog Crate

The first and most important item is a Midwest Dog Crate. There are many brands of Dog Crates out there, but the Midwest Dog Crate is the one I prefer because I feel it is a high quality product. When you are choosing a dog crate for your pet it is very important that you purchase the proper size crate. As a rule of thumb, your pet should be able to comfortably stand up and turn around in their crate. Make sure the crate is not too large for your pet. If you have a new puppy that will grow into a large adult, the Midwest Dog Crate comes with a divider panel. This is a great feature for you because you can use this divider panel to adjust the size of the crate as your dog grows. This way you only need to purchase one dog crate for the life of your dog.

Midwest Dog Crate & Pet Dreams Cratewear Set

Crate Bed & Bumper Pad

The next item that you will need is a Pet Dreams Cratewear Set. This includes a Crate Bed, Crate Cover, and a Bumper Pad. This helps you create the den-like atmosphere that your pet requires to feel safe and secure (this will be explained in the Crate Training Article). The Crate Bed in this set is a wonderful product for a puppy owner because they are completely washable and dryable. We all know puppies will have accidents during the training process and this has to be expected. However, what an ease for you to just throw the bed into the washer, dryer, and back into the crate. You might be thinking "What do I need a bumper pad for?" Let me explain. A crate bumper pad acts as a protector for your puppy's legs just like a bumper pad does for a baby in their cribs. There are many injuries every year with puppies hurting themselves in their crates. A puppy reacts in fear when he/she gets stuck and could end up causing sever damage to themselves. I have spoken to my Vet about these pads, and he thinks they are a great idea. He has seen many cases of leg damage to puppies in his practice because of this.


Basically, these 2 products are all you will need to begin Crate Training your new pet. There are many products out there to choose from, but these are the products I choose. I always look for the highest quality and the most humane products available. So your next step is to learn the technique of Crate Training. Please always remember to be patient with your puppy during this period. They are basically just like a very young child and need to be taught what is expected of them. So, please take it slow, and I wish you and your new pup well!!

Crate Training Information and Products to Accomplish it Successfully

I am a big believer in Crate Training. Crate Training is a wonderful technique to use to housebreak your new puppy. The days of rubbing your poor puppy's nose in the accident he made on your carpet are hopefully long gone. Please don't use this method. It does not housebreak your pet!! Using the Crate method is easy for you as well as your pet. It also can create the den like atmosphere that your pet requires to feel safe and secure. A crate should be your pets sanctuary. It should never, never be used to punish your pet. Children should also be taught to respect your pets crate. Don't let your child play in the crate or bother the pet when he is in the crate. A crate is not meant to be a place to keep your pet in all day. As your puppy gets a bit older he needs to play and release some energy. A pet that is couped up all day will no doubt be a crazy, rambunctious menace when he is let out. He needs to release energy, so please don't keep him locked up all day. Play with them, love them, make them part of your family. If you don't, why did you get a pet in the first place? Right??

Crate Training is a great tool for raising your puppy into the well adjusted adult dog we all want, but he also needs to be taught manners and obedience as well. I don't want you to think all you have to do is buy a crate and presto you have a wonder dog! A puppy is a big commitment just like having a child. Remember depending on the breed, your dog will be with you 9 to 15 years. The more time and effort, love, and training you give your pet equals the better chance you will have a well adjusted great dog.

You are probably gone 8 to 9 hours a day and your poor pet is stuck in the house all that time. With a PetSafe Pet Door your pet has the opportunity to go out when nature calls instead of relieving himself on your carpet.
