Well, they say that if you have a problem training your puppy, then you should strictly crate train them. This means no outside crate activity except for eating and going potty.
They also say that "tie-outs" or keeping your dog outside all day because they run wild in the house, is not good. These kinds of dogs will go crazy in the house because they dont know how to act in the house.
Here is my point: Aren't the "tied out" dogs and the "strictly crate trained" dogs kinda the same? They both dont know how to act in the house whether it be running wild or going potty. If a crate trained dog only stays in its crate, when it finally gets out, it has no preconcieved notion to not eliminate there. Same as the tied out dog who is let into the house and runs wild because it does not know how to act. Therefore, is crate training really effective??does it cause bad behaviors cuz the dog is unable to walk around the house, and therefore doesnt know he or she shouldn't eliminate there?
