But when you return home and realize puppy had urinated on the floor and chewed up your new leather shoes, you will realize you have no other choice than to keep your new puppy in a dog crate until they are better trained.

There are a few tricks owners can use to get their puppies to feel comfortable in their crates. Try putting a few of the puppy’s favorite toys in the crate, that way he will have something to do while you’re gone. Give your puppy a small treat each time he gets into the crate. The most important things to do are to give your puppy lots of love and attention when he’s out of his crate. Dogs that lack exercise tend to have more behavioral problems, and it’s an owner’s responsibility to give him that exercise.
