Crate placement can make or break your dog’s comfort level. The crate shouldn’t isolate your dog from family life, but it also shouldn’t be in a high-traffic or noisy area. Finding the right balance helps your dog feel included, secure, and able to relax.
This clip comes from the full episode “Crate Training Without the Stress: Step-by-Step for Real Success” on The Pet Parent Hotline with host Amy Castro and professional dog trainer and behaviorist Ruth Hegarty of Creature Good Dog Training. Ruth explains how to choose the best spot for your dog’s crate, what to avoid, and how small placement tweaks can make a big difference in how your dog feels about crate time.
