As you probably know I have a new pup called Jimmy. I never used a crate with my other cocker Jess and was looking for some advice on how to use one successfully with jimmy.
My main problem is I just can't close the door when he's in there which is not often as he's always in the lounge with Jess and me. He does pop in and out of there during the day and sleeps in there at night, but with the door open. He is such a busy little boy that I don't have the heart to shut the door on him (am I stupid or what?) What if i shut the door and he starts crying to come out? How long should they be left in there with door closed for any one period?
Sorry so many questions, never used one before
