In today’s tough economy, more people are downsizing their homes and cars to get rid of costly excess space. That means items that are easy to store in small spaces are in high demand. For example, in a small apartment, a crate for a large dog can take up tons of space. This is a waste of space if it’s not in use. A collapsible dog crate works just as well as a rigid plastic crate, but takes up a fraction of the space and weighs much less for easy portability.
A collapsible crate is easy to store in the trunk of a small car if you need to take it with you. Show dog owners often use collapsible crates while traveling. Depending on your needs, you can choose a wire crate or a soft-sided crate. Soft-sided crates can feature mesh, which helps air flow through the crate and prevent it from becoming smelly. However, some crafty dogs could easily chew or scratch their way out of a soft-sized crate. Be sure to take your dog’s escape skills into account when choosing a collapsible crate. It should be easy enough for you to disassemble, but not easy enough for your dog to do so as well.
When it comes to traveling with a dog, it’s important that their need for a comfortable place to rest and sleep is met. While some dogs do well when an unfamiliar location is encountered, others can be more remiss to explore. Portable dog crates are the ideal solution for providing dogs a haven to feel safe. It’s well known that even the common house dog’s ancient ancestors lived in dens and caves, and dogs too feel most safe when in a similar space. Portable dog crates are practical for travel because they’re collapsible and lightweight, making them great for road trips and long distance travel.
Most professional dog trainers and show dog owners use a portable dog crate to house their dogs while waiting for a competition or dog show. Portable dog crates can also work great for puppy crate training.
In the past several people trained puppies by just keeping them in a pen with newspaper laid out on the bottom, or kept them confined to an area with hardwood floors or linoleum. More recently, potty training through use of dog crates has become the most popular method to train puppies. When training your puppy in a crate, you give them a place to sleep and feel comfortable free from intruders. Once your puppy has identified the crate as their space, they will want to be inside it and won’t mind being separated from their owners. They’ll also be less likely to use the crate as a fire hydrant since they sleep there.
When your puppy is tired or just needs to rest, you can put them in their crate and not worry about them getting into things while running about the house. It’s also a great way to keep them contained when guests or other animals are present!
