Should I feed him in his crate?

Question
Hi, I'm Erica. I just adopted an APBT named George from a shelter. He's an awesome dog. He's housebroken and crate trained. My only question is that, should I be feeding him in his crate, or does it not matter (seeing as the dog's already potty trained)?

Thank you!

Answer
Where you feed the dog is a conveniece for you. Some dogs like being fed in the "den" others not. I don't think there is much of a consolidated opinion on this. The main consideration is any necessary clean up.
