Willie Sleeping in his Crate
Willie sleeps in a crate, and stays in his crate any time we can't supervise him directly. He stays happier, because he does not get into trouble chewing things like power cords and shoes. Also, it's a safe and comfortable space for him. He took to it quickly, as you can see here!
The back of the crate is blocked off, giving him just enough room to stand up and turn around. This discourages him from peeing and pooping in one end of the crate and sleeping in the other end, which makes it much easier to housebreak him. He had a few accidents the first week, but has been quite good since then. I had no idea housebreaking a puppy could be so simple.
