Rain Hennessey Webboard User Reg: 04-01-2006 Posts: 26 Loc: Offline	I have some questions! <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> I have no clue what to do with the crate training! Im getting my pup in about a month and am getting really nervous! Am I really supposed to leave her in the crate so many hours? How frequently do I take her out? My boss is being VERY generous and letting me bring my pup to work! I am confused on whether I should keep the pup in a crate all day or get a puppy pen and put a few toys in? Please any info on crate training an 8 week old puppy is welcome! I really did read the articles that Ed wrote but am still so confused!!!!!! Thanks in advance for anything you might tell me!!! <img src="http://www.leerburg.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

When we got our last pup, we took some vacation time, then one of us stayed home till mid-morning with him, so that he was only crated 4 hours a day, until our daughter came home from school. We did this until he was about 4 months old, then he stayed in the crate up to 6 hours. Since he has never been destructive, he was let free during the day at about 8 mo old. The crate was primarily used for house-breaking, and now for meals. He never really complained about being crated.
