Crate Training Your Chihuahua
from:Many people are misinformed about crate training. Crate
training, in fact, can be a useful tool for training many dog
breeds, one being the Chihuahua.
We all love our Chihuahuas, but many of them can get into
trouble by tearing up things, to urinating in the house, which
is why it is a good idea to confine your Chihuahua when you
can't be there to watch them. You should also put your Chihuahua
up in their crate every time you go to bed.
Don't ever punish your Chihuahua by telling them to go to their
crate, or making them go in it. Being in their crate should be
considered a "good" thing by them. In fact, most Chihuahuas will
actually enjoy sleeping and going to their crate, especially if
you make it comfortable in it by adding some blankets.
Crates are also useful when you need drive your Chihuahua
somewhere. It keeps them confined, in case of an accident.
Crate training will help your Chihuahua become potty-trained
much faster than using most other methods. Most dogs, Chihuahuas
included, won't mess in their crate at night because they have
to sleep in it. So if you take them out right when you wake up,
they will more than likely go potty outside. Then as long as you
keep rewarding your Chihuahua when they are good outside, they
will catch on pretty quick.
Every Chihuahua learns differently. Some may learn fast, others
may learn slow. When your Chihuahua doesn't need to stay locked
in their crate, it's a good idea to leave it open so they can go
in their sleep. Most Chihuahuas will love their crates. I hope
this information helps you understand crate training a little
bit better!
