Separation Anxiety Counseling ONLY Based in SF Bay Area but remote training available A Note on Crating A crate is a valuable asset to training any boxer. If used correctly, it can be a safe haven for the boxer. Once your boxer is accustomed to the crate, if the door is left open, the boxer may preferentially sleep and seek refuge in the crate. A crate also provides security to the owner. When you leave the home, if crated, the boxer cannot hurt itself or damage anything in the home. Since a boxer will usually not potty in a small space if confined there, a crate is also a valuable tool in house-training the boxer. The crate should be kept in a temperate, quiet location. For information on how to get your boxer to love the crate, please see the video – Crate Games by Susan Garrett
