Crate training your dog is a great way to establish discipline and boundaries, while also providing a calm sanctuary of individual space for the dog. Dogs are animals that need a protected place to sleep and retreat to, especially in a large house full of people. Crate training allows such a place to be established for the dog, while also reinforcing obedient behavior. A crate should never be used for punishment, but instead should be a place the dog appreciates and looks forward to for sleep or a quiet retreat. Finding the right dog cage to be used as a crate is one of the keys for success in crate training your dog.
*First, determine the size of the dog cage that is appropriate for your dogs needs. The cage should be big enough for the dog to stand up and turn around in, while not being too large relative to the dog’s height and weight. You should not purchase a cage built for a dog the size of a Great Dane, when your dog is a Pomeranian. If the cage is too large, the dog will not feel as safe inside of it, and may choose to use one side of the cage as a bathroom area.
*After the size of the cage is selected, you should decide what type of enclosure you and your dog would prefer. Generally, for crate training it is better to have a cage that is completely enclosed like a big dog carrier, as a cage that completely surrounds the dog best mimics the den style sleeping area that they prefer.
*Dog cages that are suitable for crate training can be purchased at any local area pet store that carries a large supply of products. New dog cages can also be purchased online through many different sources and websites, often at a better price than what is found at a neighborhood pet store. Additionally, stores may not always the most varied selection of dog cages, so shopping online will offer more choice and price comparisons.
*Once you have the cage inside your home and are ready to begin the crate training, you might want to put an old blanket or towels inside the cage to make your dog more comfortable.

What is the best way to house train a puppy in an apartment?
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.
