Here’s the best link Dog Lady has found that gives you all the pees and cues of potty training for pups. Sure, it’s an unseemly subject — and putting your dog in a cage, hmm, crate may seem inhumane — but once your dog is properly trained, the bond becomes stronger, the joy more palpable. And Dog Lady didn’t believe this at first but now knows dogs trained properly learn to love their cages, err crates, and may even choose to use the containers as a safe house for their entire lives.

It may be because he’s been in a crate his entire life (or because his first night in a house, we had a mild earthquake, and his crate “saved” him), but our greyhound loves his crate! He definitely goes in there whenever he’s feeling insecure about things. I always felt it was like a teenager- that is his space and he just needs it sometimes.
