what brand of wire crate was shown in this video? Ive been looking but keep finding bad reviews about sharp edges and such ... need a recommendation on a good well made wire crate please.

I was very against a crate with my last dog (a tri-county rescue jack russell who was spayed by your dad at Clint Moore ages ago), because I just felt like I was mistreating her to protect my things. And she unfortunately did a lot of damage when we were gone. We recently got another JRT puppy and decided to crate. I was still feeling bad about it until I saw one of your IG stories where you mention crating all your dogs because you wanted to know they were safe while you were gone. That difference in perspective was a game changer for me. Thanks!

Hey Julie! I am just reading this now and that's amazing news to hear that you are happy with your crate training decision! It really is the safest thing for them and your belongings!

I need a crate like at 3:30 but with wheels.

If your dog is fully trained and does not go potty in the house or have separation anxiety why crate them all the time? Especially if you have a guardian breed, they can’t guard the house locked in a crate!

[@priscillacastillo5619]

I thought the crate was for potty training the puppy it’s hard to buy to buy two crates one for sleeping and one for potty training

[@drlindsaybutzer]

Its for potty training, but then they will grow and graduate to a crate that is their safe spot and their home that they will den in. Any vet hospital will take a donated crate or you can try to re-sell your first crate on Facebook market place ect!

[@RainbowRiver]

Late comment, but a lot of wire crates have a divider in them that you can use while they are small to avoid potty accidents and then take out when they grow bigger.

I’m getting so annoyed! None of these videos give any specifics or show different sizes of dogs INSIDE the crate and no one is giving crate dimensions so I have no idea what to ACTUALLY buy!

[@drlindsaybutzer]

Hey! I understand this frustration. Just get a crate that is bigger than smaller if you are worried. Your dog will grow into it and then you will have your dogs forever crate/den for them in your home wherever you decide to put it.

[@weirdwizard-fb5fn]

@@drlindsaybutzer that is too vague! I have an adult dog and I need to know what size of crate to buy for her! Like a “if your dog is x lbs buy a crate that is x inches wide , x inches long and x inches wide. Anything else is useless when aim standing in the store!

[@normalaurent4960]

I don’t believe in crates. I’m 70 years old. I’ve had dogs my entire life. My dad also had many dogs. Not one was ever crated. They were potty trained and didn’t destroy the house. Some people crate their dogs for 12 hours a day. That’s animal abuse.

[@sandraioana6359]

People have totally lost theyr mind. “To have your dog safe :)))) wtf

[@chubbystrinkets]

ok but imagine a dog who like to chew things and leaving them alone for a few hours what have they digested? you have no idea, whopper of a vet bill

[@RebellisSpiritus]

This channel shows exactly what NOT to do. I do the opposite and guess what - success

[@alphillips5478]

The best crate is NO crate

[@alphillips5478]

@Ilovedogsxoxoxo Dogs like dens? Ask them did you? A crate is not a den. Maybe you should stop projecting your feelings on a dog! Perhaps we should put you in a crate. See how u like it
