I am a big believer in crate training dogs. Not just for house training, but to keep your stuff and your dog safe until the dog reaches some type of maturity.
I don’t know how old Rio is, but he is definitely not mature! My husband released Rio from his crate one afternoon last week.
Evidently, Rio was in the holiday spirit and made it snow in my living room. You have to laugh.
He unzipped a dog bed and tossed the filling around with glee. As you can see from the pictures, he has no remorse! Rio is so full of life he brings fun and joy to every day.
But crate your puppies if you want a neat home and intact decorative items.
