How long can a new 8 week old puppy go at night in his crate?
Puppies can be in their crates all night. Just make sure you let them out to go to the bathroom right before you go to sleep and as soon as you wake up in the morning.You should get a crate that is just large enough for the puppy. If you want to buy a large crate because your dog will get bigger, then stick a box or some kind of separator in the back of the crate to make it smaller. This makes it so that the dog will not want to go to the bathroom in its bed.
How big should a puppy's crate be?
The weight of the dog usually doesn't matter. But the size does! If you are buying a crate, then make sure it is big enough for you dog to stand up,turn around, and lay in. Now if you have a puppy, your puppy is probobly gonna potty in their crate. So make sure that it is just big enought to stand, turn around, and lay down in. Or they will go potty. But if it's a bigger dog it can be as big as you like. Answer: In addition to the great response above me if you have a large breed puppy you can purchase a larger crate but buy a divider to change how much room the puppy will have since large breed puppies grow very quickly. ---- How to Size your Dog for a Dog Crate. Dogs are by nature den creatures and desire a place of their own. A crate located in your home gives your dog a place to call their own. It provides them security and comfort. Dog crates come in many different sizes. To determine the appropriate Dog Crate Size, measure your dog's height and length. The best crate will allow your dog to stand up on all fours without having to bend their necks to shoulder level. The crate should also allow your dog to lie down and stretch his full body length without being cramped and they should be able to turn around easily. You do not want a dog crate that is too big either. When a dog has too much room in the crate, he/she might decide to go potty in one corner and sleep in the other. If the crate is just the right size for sleeping and lounging, the dog will usually not go potty in the same place it sleeps or lives. If you have a puppy, you will most likely want to buy a bigger size crate that will work as your puppy grows. Make sure that the crate you purchase has a divider panel. A divider panel allows you to adjust the size of the crate as your puppy grows. A divider panel solves the problem of a crate being too big. Dog crates are available in single door, double door and triple door design. Multiple doors allow you more access to your pet and their living quarters. It's up to you as to how much access you want to the crate. Most dog crates come with a free pan. A pan is usually made of durable plastic and serves as the floor of the crate. The pan can be easily cleaned if there are any accidents and for just regular maintenance. Divider panels can also come with a crate or can be an optional feature.

How do you house a puppy?
Puppies should be kept indoors unless supervised outside. It is not safe for puppies to live outside all the time. Inside, puppies should be given a safe play area that is easy to keep clean and is puppy-proofed. The play area should be large enough to accommodate a bed, food and water dishes, and a corner away from the bed and food to toilet in. During toilet training puppies will spend several hours a day in a crate used especially for that purpose. The crate should be just large enough for the puppy to stand erect, turn, and lie flat on his side comfortably, and no larger. If the crate is too large, the puppy may start toileting inside the crate. The whole idea of crate training is that puppies will attempt to avoid toileting where they sleep or lie.
Why does your pit bull puppy cry and howl all night when its in the crate?
How old is the pit bull puppy? If it is fairly young and separated from its mother and litter mates too soon they will have problems dealing with being alone/isolated in a cage. They are a very social breed and love to interact with other dogs and people. Very young puppies sleep patterns will be irregular and they will wake up throughout the night ready to play. I suggest you place a toy in with them so when they are awake at night they have something to occupy their time
Potty Training Your New Puppy ?
Potty training your new puppy can be frustrating if you are not used to training a dog. Potty training is not difficult, but it does take a little dedication and hard work on the part of the owner. Follow these easy tips and you will have a trained dog in no time.Never leave your puppy unsupervised, even for a minute. An unsupervised puppy is very likely to get into all kinds of trouble, from chewing to making a mess in the house. A puppy is just like a toddler, as they need to be watched at all times so they do not get hurt or into something that they shouldn't. Even when you are inside the house, consider keeping your puppy next to you on a leash so that you know where it is at all times. This will not give the puppy the opportunity to sneak away and have an accident in the house.The best way to train your puppy is to use a crate. When you crate a puppy, it thinks of the crate as its home and will not use it as a restroom. Puppies will not make a mess where they sleep, so crate training is a great way to potty train your new puppy. Plus, the crate provides a safe environment where you can leave your pet when you go to work.When you walk your dog, be sure to offer plenty of praise after it goes to the bathroom outside. If your dog is motivated by treats, carry treats with you when you take the dog out and give it a treat as soon as it goes potty outside. If you have a very young puppy, be sure to take it out every couple of hours, even in the middle of the night. If you can get your dog almost all the way potty trained in the first week that you have the dog home, you won't have to take it out as frequently once it knows that the bathroom is outside.Be sure to use a cleanser that is specially made to take the ammonia out of pet accidents if your puppy has an accident on the carpet. You can find pet accident cleaners at any discount or pet store. If you do not clean the accident spots thoroughly, your puppy will be able to smell the odor and will keep coming back to that spot to urinate. But, you should be accident free within a couple of weeks if you remain dedicated to potty training your new puppy.
Your puppy is not doing well in potty training what should you do you are crate traing her now and all she does is pee and poop in her crate?
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.
