What’s the Right Crate Size For Your Puppy?

vet clinic Cherry Hill NJ

House training a puppy will proceed better if you have a crate for the puppy that is of the right size.  You may be tempted to acquire a crate that is a bit larger for your pet puppy, but you should keep in mind that if your pet realizes that he has extra space in the crate, he will treat one of the corners as the bathroom area.

Various crate types are commercially available currently, so should you want to spend a little extra for your pet, look for one with divider panels that you can adjust so that your puppy can utilize this as he grows.

A crate of the right size should have adequate space where your puppy can lie down comfortably and be able to turn around inside.  Ideally, there should be around three to four inches clearance between the crate roof and your pet’s head when he either stands or sits.

Check with your vet clinic Cherry Hill, NJ for any questions and/or concerns about dog kennels and crate training.
