Crate Training
Crate Training for Toby’s Rescue by Kiss My Snout
Double Door Collapsible Wire Dog Crate A double door crate is suggested for training so that you have flexibility with how your pup wants to enter. If your dog is already accustomed to crate training, a single door will work just fine.
Line your crate with old sweaters or towels or go for something that’s plush and easy to wash.
