All breeds have the potential to do well with crate training. They will howl and bark ad whine for the first few days or about a week, but after that they should come to think of the crate as their bedroom. It will make it easier for the dog if you give then a treat when you put them in the crate so they know they are not being punished.
I think you should probably never end crate training. What's the point of crate training if you take away the crate? The point of a crate is to be able to go away and you don't have to be worrying what your dog is doing. Hope this helps! Have a nice day.
Crate training is often the best way to train a dog. I do not see ant flaws in it.
In my opinion you should start with the dog crate next to you, and start moving it away from you little by little.

If your puppy (or dog) is in need of potty training, the best method would be to paper train him. Crate training can be used at the same time you're paper training him. While you're away, putting your puppy in the crate is a good way to keep him from wetting (or "going #2") on himself. Puppies don't like to wet themselves, and will try very hard not too. So it is important to get a crate small enough so that they don't have room to go in one corner of the crate and then be clean in another corner. You can find out more about paper and crate training in a google search. You'll get tons of helpful websites. The website in related has information of both paper and crate training in it.

Crate training can be an efficient and effective way to house train a puppy. Puppies do not like to soil their resting/sleeping quarters if given adequate opportunity to eliminate elsewhere
Either invest in a smaller crate, or block off a part of a larger crate to make the dogs space smaller. The dog will start the think of the crate as is bedroom, and it won't want to go to the bathroom in its bedroom. If there is room for the dog to go to the bathroom and then lay in another area where it can stay away from the feces, the crate is too big. Dogs do not want to lay in their own feces, so a small crate would help to curb this habit.
Generally no. The Chinese Crested is difficult to housebreak in comparison to other breeds. Consistent crate training is needed and you may even need a doggy door in the training process. Some Chinese Cresteds never becomes fully housebroken and territorial marking is common amongst unneutered males.
The solution to that is a solid program on crate training. A crate can really be a comfortable den for a dog if you do it the proper way. Here's more details, http://dogtime.com/housetraining-crate-training.html
German Shepherds are a fantastic breed to have for protection, and they do quite well with other German Shepherds and different breeds as well. Most breeds of dogs can get along, the key is training. Poor training will produce poorly behaved dogs that do not get along and can be aggressive. Firm training will produce highly trained and sound of mind animals. I recommend German Shepherds, as an owner of 2, and a Mom of 2 little ones, I see how protective yet loving additions to the family they can make.
Crate training is the easiest way to housetrain dogs, and it also teaches them how to settle down and entertain themselves when you're gone. However, crates won't work if they're used to punish a dog or keep him "out of sight, out of mind." Use the crate only when necessary, give your dog plenty of breaks to stretch his legs and to play and bond with you, and make crate time more pleasant by stocking it with toys.more information:http://dogtime.com/housetraining-crate-training.html
