hi i've got a question about crate/den training..
I'm french and in france using a crate for everyday life is not usual.
As i told you i've read Ian Dunbar Before you get a puppy and I totally changed my mind on crate training i really do understand the purpose of long/short term confinement..to help with house training/independence etc...
I would like to know what you think about that for a CKC and what is your own experience
another question did you all use an indoor toilet ?
If yes are you still using it or when did you stop ?
thanks again
ps: I only want to do what is best for him...i don't like the idea of crate neither...i'd prefer my doggy to be all the time with me..but if crate is good to help him with housetraining why not.
and also i read (by Ian Dunbar) it will help learn him to enjoy his onw company
crate + chewtoys ...
i've just return my beatiful dog bed...to buy a crate (i couldn't not offerd them both) i hope it's for the best...
this is not funny for me to think crate training is good but i've heard and read that was the best..
i'm a bit lost at this point....
