Re: [Chihuahuas] Crate Training

Hi Maria   I don't crate Sophie, so I looked it up real quick for you because it sounds like you have to get going.=)   Here is a good Humane Society article on crating.  If you don't have time to read it right now part of it says:   How long can my dog stay in the crate? The rule of thumb is: for every month of age a dog can be crated for one hour, but no longer than 8 hours. Preceding and following being crated, a dog should have ample opportunity for aerobic activity. You should also be careful to try not to keep your dog crated for longer than 8 hours a day. Dogs crave your company, and need the socialization that being with you can provide. Katie " Lets talk about our wonderful little friends! Join today!
