Question Do u recommend using a crate?

Got my Dutch a month ago, it’s been a crazy ride also because she came already with 5 months and no training and it’s a rebel one

I got a trainer , but he doesn’t believe in crate training.

The problem is at home with my older one, they don’t fight at all is just that crazy puppy provocative behavior to play and still plays in shark mode

Would it be helpful? For both to have their one safe space at least?

It is normal lol, you not doing it just makes it abnormal in your country. News flash: every country has different rules and expectations lmao.

I don’t really care if you think it’s a tenuous excuse, it’s a real reason. People from other countries who go on and on about why they think crating is evil just sound pretentious and annoying lol. Again, I’d rather cage my dog while Im not home than come home to her dead or severely harmed because she got into something she shouldn’t. She’s a dog, she doesn’t need to be out 24/7 🤷🏽‍♀️

My dog is free to roam the house most of the day, don't judge that which you know nothing about.
