Crate training is a popular method for teaching dogs to feel comfortable and secure in their own space. To start, sit near the crate for a few minutes and then leave the room for a short period of time.
Return and sit quietly again before letting your dog out. Repeat this process multiple times a day, gradually increasing the amount of time your dog spends in the crate and the length of time you are out of sight.
With such patience and consistency, your dog will learn to associate the crate with positive experiences and feel at ease when inside.
