Question:
Should every dog be kennel trained?
Answer:
Providing a dog with its very own portable kennel is a kind and caring
thing to do. Dogs evolved from wolves, so they have an instinct to have a "den"
of their own. You may notice your dog going under the table or desk to rest. They
are trying to find a den.
A portable kennel can have many functions. It can be their dining room because they
are fed there - especially if food aggressive. It can be their playroom where they
have access to only approved chew toys. It can be their "safe room" if they are
afraid of children or new people. It can be their magic carpet to travel safely
with you in the car or plane. Most importantly, it is simply their very own place
they can go any time they are feeling stressed.
