Helping Your Puppy Become Accustomed to a Crate

As we continue National Train Your Dog Month, we wanted to share a video from Debbie McKnight, training expert for PetSmart (where our Irie was trained!)
This video helps illustrate how you can get your puppy accustomed to a crate, using his natural “denning” instinct to keep him from going to the bathroom until he is out of the crate. This video demonstrates how to teach a dog to go into and be comfortable in his crate; watch as Debbie teaches Wookie how to enjoy going into his crate.
We love that this video, like PetSmart training classes, uses positive reinforcement to make the training fun for both the dog and the trainer!
