How To Crate Train | Herky the Cavalier | Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

[@happygirly2300]

I had my cavalier in his crate from day 1 of having him. He never cried. Instead he waited for us to get up. I also took him outside to his toilet place and he did a wee! Cavaliers are lovely !

What is the suitable crate size for a grown dog? Is it 30"?

[@brittanymcmcmc9730]

The tip about putting the paper outside so she knows where to pee in the future...SO HELPFUL! I am always researching for my future cav...their sensitivity was always something I wondered about. Great tip!!

[@herkythecavalier]

That paper trick really helped us!

[@jenniferjohnson4933]

Thank you for the informative cute video! I just became the owner of a three month little Cavalier girl!

[@lillycarroll2521]

That’s so cute I’m getting a cavalier in august

[@HKAGummygirl]

Your channel is a life saver! I/m a new puppy mom to a 4 month old Cavalier, and I have been so overwhelmed with watching him constantly throughout the day since I have never had an inside dog. I never knew that you could just put them in their crate for naps! no wonder my poor boy is already getting separation anxiety! I've just been letting him lay with me for naps and would only put him in his crate at night. I'm going to try your technique and see if I can finally have some time to myself!

[@lillycarroll2521]

Love your videos!!!!! I’m getting a cavalier in august and I’m so exited I haven’t had a dog for a long time but I’m watching your videos over and over because they are sooo helpful thanks!!😀😁😁

[@plexigirls101]

this really helps a lot and i hope my parents let me have a cavalier i definitely wanna make preparations before bringing one home

[@bhstennis04]

Thank you for all of your help! My puppy finally comes home next month and you’ve really been a huge help! Do you have a current link for the crate you bought from Walmart...or the size of it if it is no longer available?!

[@gemmam3187]

Brilliant advice, really appreciate this. Thank you.

[@mrsjka1]

This is fantastic, thank you - so informative ❤️

[@brianchoi7134]

Hey, great video! How long does it take to house train a cavalier? I know you mentioned the 18 month thing, but I'd assume they "get it" long before that...hopefully?

[@trishwhetzel2061]

Great video, it will come in very handy.

[@GuptaPoorvi]

[@adaargun9375]

Love your channel. Love ur videos

[@herkythecavalier]

Thank you very much!!

[@heatherjasper97]

Have you tried out the bells where the dog jingles some bells on the door as a signal to go out?

[@herkythecavalier]

Never tried that, but they scratch the door when they need to go :)

[@joandonato468]

Very informative, thanks! How does the training work overnight when the puppies need to go every couple of hours?

[@herkythecavalier]

The first few nights with both Herky and Milton, we would take them out every 2 hours. Then we slowly add more hours between each potty break! Milton can now hold it for a good 8-9 hours overnight :)

[@joandonato468]

Herky The Cavalier Thanks so much for the tip! Love watching the very gorgeous Herky and Milton!

My 11 week old Cav will pee inside right after peeing/pooping outside. Like within minutes. We’ve had her for over a week now. She goes outside no problem but she also goes inside if the mood strikes. What do I do? She has a crate she sleeps and relaxes. I think she likes it cuz she doesn’t really cry trying to get out.

[@kyliehudelson7050]

Hello! The play pen you have is so cute with the scalloped top! Where did you get it from?

[@tanviappa6873]

We are getting our Cavalier at 8 weeks old in a couple of weeks and I want to get a small plastic travel crate for now and then transition to a larger wire crate later. Seems like you did the same thing. What size plastic crate did you get when you first got him? I got a size Small Petsmate one but that still seems quite big.

[@shalipontifex8151]

Hey! Just a quick question...when you got herky as a puppy- what age was she?

[@SVcreations43]

What's the longest you leave her inside the crate?

[@keeweefroot2692]

I have a Cavalier Papillion mix and he's terrified of his crate. I'll try to do these.

[@dunjasubotic1404]

They are super cute🐕❤️🐾

[@katherinemcclintock2529]

Hi! What do you recommend for night time?

[@mrsreddick4645]

My moms first video by you was this one because we just got a puppy

[@GuptaPoorvi]

Also which grass pad you recommend for balcony

[@RONNIEKRAVITZ1]

[@JulieNicoleSays]

[@lauracanciu9303]

[@karenminns6499]

How can i get a puppy of cavaliar( female)

[@Kian_0708]

sudakshina kundu Find a reputable breeder to make sure the mama dada cavaliers didn’t have issues so the puppies are healthy

[@Lavenderrose73]

I want to get the puppy apartment so that the dog I get will be able to go potty even if I'm not there to let her out. I've heard those are good for training too.

[@Desperado665]

How can I tell if they are crying to pee or just crying?

[@durupawar1376]

She is literally working since five ears

I'm getting a Cavalier in a few months, but I don't know how long I'm gonna have her cage. I'm going into 8th grade, and she's gonna be alone. So I don't want a space that's too small for her, only because I want to put a pee pad in case she needs to go while I'm at school. Thanks for reading this, and all I have to ask is: What's your advice for getting a new puppy? (This question applies for anyone that reads this)

[@sum12stupid4u]

Hey I'm not entirely sure what your situation is, but the point of crating isn't just for potty training. It's also a safe area for the dog that is theirs, and they should never go to the bathroom in it or have it be used as a punishment. It's extremely counter productive to your pup's progress. You also shouldn't crate a dog more than 4 hours at a time. Your pooch can get really bad anxiety and since they won't go to the bathroom where they sleep it can cause them a lot of pain too and make it more difficult for them to potty train. It can also cause behavioral problems as they're a social breed literally bred for being a lapdog. My suggestion is to make arrangements for your dog to be taken out when you aren't home or to set up an area outside of her crate with a puppy pad and food/water and leave her toys, treats, blankets inside of the crate. If you can get a puppy/playpen type of area sectioned off with the crate/food/water/pad inside of so your puppy can't roam the house and pee everywhere, that would be the best option. However you should know this will make it MUCH more difficult to train your puppy to go outside, however she wont be as miserable trying to hold in her pee for 8 hour and her crate wont seem as much like a punishment than a safety spot. You really don't want to have your crate be too big either, because then they will go to the bathroom in it and it won't feel as safe for them either. So I recommend getting the crate sized for how big she'll be as an adult and then blocking off a section of it until she grows into the size of her crate. It's honestly my recommendation that if you won't be home that frequently and can't make other arrangements for her during the day, that maybe a Cavalier isn't the best choice. Dogs are bred for human companionship and it's honestly really difficult on a breed like Cavaliers to be home alone all day.

[@yourmom2518]

Cavaliers think it is punishment if u crate train them

[@emmaxdrawr5208]

I don’t crate train because I don’t believe in it
