Dogs need space too. 10 tips for selecting and using a dog crate.

1. A kennel or dog crate has become the preferred method for maintaining a clean home and an obedient dog. There are so many advantages of accustoming your dog to a crate that you should consider purchasing one even before bringing the dog home.

2. The crate or kennel mimics a "den" that dogs have evolved to need and appreciate. This is why you see dogs without crates or pens camp out underneath furniture or stake out a usual spot in the house.

3. For large breeds, buy a large dog crate that can be partitioned off while the dog is still a puppy. It'll save you from buying several crates or kennels as the dog grows.

4. A perfectly sized dog crate is one that's not too big for your pet. He should have just enough space to stand up, turn around, and lie down. Properly sized dog crates perfectly meet this need. You wouldn't want to buy an extra large dog crate for your Beagle, but it may be suitable for your Boxer.

5. A wire dog crate is the perfect antidote for an overexcited pup that doesn't see why he shouldn't jump all over guests. When placed in a crate, the dog gets the idea and quickly quiets down. If that doesn't do the trick, cover it with a blanket.

6. For housebreaking puppies, dog crates are indispensible. Let the dog out of the crate after a nap or meal, then immediately take outside. Soon enough, with praise and repetition, clean ups and scolding will be a thing of the past.

7. Kids often don't understand that a dog may not want to play. By providing a sanctuary from everyone, the dog can decide when to interact. This is especially good for older dogs who may want more privacy. Folding dog crates are excellent for taking along on outings or trips. This way, your dog can have his personal space anywhere.

8. It is a common misperception that crating a dog is somehow cruel or abusive. Dogs descended from wolves, and both can be shown to find comfort and safety in their den. Not letting the dog out would be cruel, but so is depriving a dog of a place he can call his own.

9. Keep regular sleep, meal, and exercise schedules with a new puppy. When you crate your puppy after exercise, during naps, and for meals, he will quickly grow accustomed to the procedure and eventually enjoy it.

10. Sometimes a young puppy doesn't like the crate at first. This is normal. Keep a couple tough, chewable toys in the crate along with a good bed or blanket. Giving the dog a treat each time he goes in the crate will create positive associations quickly. If you have a real chewer on your hands, you may be better off with a wire or plastic dog crate, rather than a soft dog crate.
