Criteria for buying cages for dogs

Pets are like our friends so we definitely do not like to cage them; however, there are certain occasions when we need to cage the pet, especially when we go out for a trip. For training the dog and while treating it with any pest, medication caging it for some time is essential. However, there are certain criteria for buying cages for dogs and a pet lover must
consider these factors before they buy the dog cage.

Rules to buy cages for dogs

1. Purchase the cage when the dog is in its puppy stage

When the dog is in its puppy stage, it is best time to buy the dog cage. The puppy must be kept in the cage with food and water. This will enable it to get accustomed to the environment of the cage and soon he will not throw tantrums staying in the cage. The pet must not be kept in the cage for a long period, start by keeping it for ?hour and then gradually the tie must be increased.

Note: It is strongly recommended to give the pet a small treat after he/she is released from the cage.

2. Cage must be comfortable

The cage must be comfortable for the pooch. It must be big enough, as the pet will grow up one day unless the pet owner desires to spend twice. One must make sure to get the cage depending on the size of the dog breed when it grows up. The cage must be large enough so that the pet can stretch itself and sleep comfortably. Males grow up larger than females so this criterion must also be considered in buying the dog cage.

3. The cage must be comfortable

Just buying cages for dogs is not sufficient; one must make it comfortable for the pooch. The cage must have soft comfortable bedding, during winter a thick cloth must be kept over the cage so that it does not feel cold. There must be soft cushion padding all around the inner corner of the cage, during the summer these cushion padding must be removed.

The cage must facility to keep food and water. Make sure that a bowl is fixed at a certain height inside the cage. The height must be such that the dog feels comfortable drinking water. The bowl must be fixed so that it does not fall while the dog is stretching in the cage.

One may think twice before trusting a stranger but before trusting a dog, there is no second thought. Dogs are beautiful creation of God; they are filled with love, trust, and compassion, so pet's owners take very good care of them.
