Why You May Want to Skip Toys in Your Dog’s Crate
Not all crate toys are safe; and some can put your dog at serious risk. From choking hazards to intestinal blockages, here’s why you may want to skip toys in the crate and what to offer instead to keep your pup safe, happy, and enriched.
Why You Should Consider Removing Your Dog’s Collar Before Putting Them in a Crate
While collars are essential for identification and walking, it's important to consider removing your dog's collar before placing them in a crate. Collars can pose choking hazards, cause injuries from friction, or lead to discomfort, especially during crate time. By removing the collar, you eliminate the risk of entanglement, reduce the chances of skin irritation, and promote a more comfortable, stress-free environment for your dog. Additionally, using a microchip or separate ID tags ensures your dog remains identifiable without the risks associated with wearing a collar in the crate. Prioritizing your dog’s safety and comfort is key to creating a secure and restful crate experience.
