Some pet centers will rent out crates so you may start off with one of a smaller size and upgrade as your dog gets bigger. If you wish your pup to continue using the crate into adulthood then you will need to choose one that they can stand up and turn around easily in when they’re fully grown. I also like the metal collapsable pen-type crates as opposed to the fabric crates that are often used for the short term.Īs far as what size to purchase, consider how big your pup will be when fully grown. My personal favourites are those that have two doors, a roof and a solid floor with a lip to prevent spillage of liquids out of the crate.

Toileting: while in the toilet training process we can ensure that they aren’t running around the house peeing in inappropriate places.Safety: we know where our pup or dog is when we can’t supervise them directly.Like Kylie mentioned in her article “ Why crate training makes bringing home a puppy so much easier” there are many benefits to crate training, the big benefits for most of us are:
