Crate Training Your Pit Bull Terrier Puppy
Were you aware that crate training your Pit Bull terrier is the responsible thing to do as a dog owner, and that everyone should be doing this? Properly crate training your Pit is one of the best things that you could possibly do, and I'm going to explain exactly how to do it correctly. If you're not exactly sure what I mean by "crate training", don't worry. This article is going to break everything down for you in easy to understand language.
When you first bring your Pit Bull terrier pup home, it is important that you show him exactly what his territory is. It is at this point in time that you'll introduce him to his crate.
Place you Pits crate in a designated room or area of the house so that he can go there to rest and relax. This is very important and should not be a high traffic area.
You can purchase a crate at your local pet supply superstore or you could make one yourself if you're so inclined. A wire crate with partitions is preferred, so that you can section it off when he's little, then expand the partition as he grows. The crate should also have a washable tray below that slides out for easy cleaning.
I would recommend a large crate for your Pit Bull, then set the partitions so that your puppy has enough room to stand up and lay down. You don't want him to have excess room however as this will give him a place to go potty without him having to lay in it.
Using partitions is more important than the size of the crate you purchase. Make sure that you use them to limit your puppies free space inside the crate and be consistent with the routine. Congratulations on being a responsible Pit Bull terrier owner!
