Large Dog Crate for My Dog
Dog crates and kennels provide mutual benefits for the owner and their dogs. How large it should be? This is one of the decisions that pet owners consider before buying a dog crate. Large dog crates let your dogs to fit in and do whatever they want without holding its right for freedom. It allows them to sleep well and stretch wide. They also have enough space to move.
Dogs love to scamper around and play whenever they want and putting them in the crate makes them disciplined. This is a great training, especially for growing puppies, to control them from messing up with your garden or things inside the home. Small puppies find it difficult to stay in the crate; this is something that makes them cry because it hinders them to go around circles and run all day.
However, it is said that putting dogs inside the crane will make them braver and when comes out can easily threaten people around the area. This is not yet proven, but most trainers believe that dogs start listening and following your commands by putting them into crane.
The most popular types of large dog crates are wire and outdoor crates. Each has different uses and features that suit the need of your dog for shelter. For some reasons, I prefer wire and outdoor crates, aside from the size, because they offers good ventilation for my dogs. Wire dog crates are strong and easy to clean. It is great for home use and training purposes. Trendy wire and metal crates can be fold and style as furniture. It can also be covered. Outdoor door crates are larger that allows the dog to be free in roaming, stretching, moving and playing at a larger perimeter.
You can bring the crates everywhere because it can be fold and set according to your preference, but airlines don’t allow passengers to travel with crates. It’s always sad to be away from your dogs for long time especially when they are close to you. But, with assembled large dog crates, your dog can also enjoy the new place where it is.
The cost of large dog crate varies from $50 - $125 depending on the materials used and quality for medium and large dogs. Not everyone can afford to replace their dog crates to control them everytime their dogs gets older and sizes increase. It is better to train them while the are small and they will eventually get used to their new home.
Providing comfort and safety for your dogs are your responsibility. You must clean the crates properly by sweeping all the food remains to avoid sting odors and pests. Change their bed covers once or twice a month, this is part of their hygiene that makes them fresh and clean. Wire and outdoor crates do not require high maintenance. It can last for long years but, you should take care of it because it is also part of your house. Large dog crate gives proper training to your dogs, area that they may call as their own and added decoration to your house premises.

Is a 1 year old white german shepherd dog good around babies and family members when adopted at that age?thnx?
I am thinking about getting this one year old white german shepherd from the human society. She had been lost and no one had claimed her so they put her up for adoption. she seems a bit skinny but one of the vet techs told me thats becasue probably she hadn't eatin in a while when she had been lost wondering around. When i met her one on one she was very jumpy and hyper one of the ladies said thats because they don't give it much excercise. She was very friendly and when i had a treat in my hand i told her to sit and she did. also she licked me my hands and face alot. she seemed to be trained dog. I have never owned a dog but i really want one. I have a baby sister (one year old) will the WGS be good around her and the rest of my family. I probably will keep this dog in my garage or in the back yard for a while before letting it in the house. i used to be scared of dogs but when i met this WGS i like connected to it i wasn't scared of it at all. is this one year old WGS okay to have.tx

training my great dane??
I have a 1 1/2 yo great dane. He is the GREATEST dog I have ever had. He sits, stays, speaks, shakes, comes, stays etc... I don't even have to have him on a leash in my unfenced back yard or the park or where ever(i do for legal reasons when required).
OK so the only thing I cant get this great dog to too is STOP EATING OFF THE TABLE,TRASH and anything with people food on it.
I have had the dog for a week. I do not give him people food, but the previous owner more then likely did.
Yes this dog is very smart. NO does it and he backs away, but he will come back and do it right in front of me like its nothing
"donna and jesse" great site and you know your stuff.
the answer is not to simply make it so the dog cant get it. I should be able to leave a t-bone steak right in front of my dog and say one command and he will NEVER even look at it unless I say its ok. any dog can be trianed like that and I have trianed this dog a lot in a week, but I was stuck on one problem. sorry, but if you just make it so the dog cant get it then you are not trianing your dog.

How to stop dog from digging?
I know it is because she is restless and I DO exercise her everyday as much as I can. But some days I REALLY don't have the time to do a full length run and can only play fetch in the back yard for 45 minutes. These are the days she digs, Is there any way to discipline her to stop digging?

How big should a great dane’s dog house be?
My husband is planning on building our dog a dog house for outside. We have great dane mix puppy only about 5 months old, he's far from being full grown so i'm not sure what his full grown measurements will be. How big should an average great danes dog house be? we've looked at a few designs and we want to build one with a door on the front left side and inside it has a little half wall kind of thing so he can go to the right side and be blocked from the wind and rain and everything else. any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Rescue Member - STOP JUDGING... anywhere in my question did i say i lock him outside all the time? No i did not. I love my dog and he is a great companion. did it ever occur to you that when i do put him outside on occasion, that i would like him to feel just as loved as if he was inside with me? have you ever had so much company that you want your dog outside so he doesn't bother them? i don't want to just put him out in my back yard, this house is for him to be in when he just can't be inside with me! Thank you for all your help!
