Once your dog learns to love their crate, it becomes more than just a training tool. It turns into their safe place, a calm retreat where they can rest, relax, and escape the noise of daily life. When the crate feels like home, dogs will go in on their own because it gives them comfort and security.

This clip comes from the full episode “Is Crating Cruel? 5 Surprising Benefits for Your Dog” on The Pet Parent Hotline with host Amy Castro, MA, CSP. Amy shares why the crate is one of the most beneficial spaces you can provide for your dog and how it helps them feel safe, centered, and part of the family.
