How to help a dog with crate anxiety

While you should not crate your dog for excessive periods, sometimes it is necessary for your dog’s safety. Yet some dogs experience extreme anxiety in the crate. This video will help you resolve crate anxiety, excessive barking in the crate and even help some dogs who eliminate in their crate.

WARNING: this video shows dog anxiety which some viewers may find upsetting. It is our hope, however, that the technique shown will help many dogs, as it did the dog in the video.

I suggest you consult the book I coauthored with the Monks of New Skete for more information. LET DOGS BE DOGS is available wherever books are sold.
