[QUOTE="DDD, post: 270271, member: 35"] Seriously, Suz. If he likes his crate, won't using the crate as a punishment undermine the positive aspects of crate use? I'm no dog expert but noone has said "oh yeah, my dog opens and closes himself in the crate". The reaction is more liake "WHAT? That's AWESOME!" What to heck would he do in his crate that many hours? Seriously. We get up at 7. He would be let out then. Trip to the yard. Fresh food and water. By 9 everyone would be heading out and he would be in the crate again. Chances are great that nobody would be home til 4 or 5. Out of the crate. Trip to the yard. Fresh food and water. Play. Maybe a walk. Lots os pats. Then 10 or 11 back in the crate for the night after a trip to the yard. That doesn't sound warn and fuzzy. I'm not trying to be funny. Does that sound like the way to go? Really? I trust your judgement. Maybe it's my claustrophobia. It just sounds like a major bummer to me. DDD [/QUOTE]
