Just for context: I think crate training is a very US thing to do. I’ve never heard of it before i saw it on social media. I didn’t crate train my dog and i don’t know anybody that did this. When i first heard of it, it seemed cruel to me, but again i think it’s just a cultural thing.

I get that. It is a very US thing to do. I’ve never had dogs that haven’t like crates until now. I think my guy is just having issues now because of his antibiotic. He and my puppy were crate trained almost instantly because I made the crates into basically bedrooms for them. Comfy beds, toys, and bones are all in there for them. They honestly don’t sleep super well unless they’re in their crates. They nap outside of the crates, but it doesn’t seem to be actually super restful sleep.
