My mom and I think that it is inhumane to keep a dog in a little cage. My dog has free rome of my house even when we are gon somewhere. I have never crate trained her and never will. That applies to any dogs that i own in the future. That is just my opinion about crate training.

P.S. if you want to have her stop peeing and pooping in the house, always spray a bad smelling non-toxic spray sold at pet stores. This stuff is not smellable to humans.
