I have a 2.5 month working line belgian tervueren, full of energy and overly attached to me - she's still a baby tho, we're working on that. She was absolutely terrified the first time I tried to crate her: biting hard the bars, howling, peeing... she was having real panick attacks. So I realized that maybe I was going a bit too fast. The last couple of days, I spent a LOT of time making the crate an enjoyable and safe place, by giving her treats, playing, always leaving the door open, etc. She wouldn't stay much in it by herself, but every time she'd felt alseep on my feet, I would wait for her to be so sleepy she wouldn't wake up, and I gently put her in the crate (door open) to sleep. Today, after potty & exercising, I put her in the crate to sleep and closed the door. She cryed (gently) for about 5 min but also felt asleep kinda fast. So, so much improvement. She's still a tiny baby, but I'm so proud of her. Thank you for the video, it helped me A LOT! Ryka and you are a wonderful team. Cheers from France

Thank you for the video. I had dachshunds for years and just adopted a 9-week female Mal. Is there a certain type/brand of peanut butter you use for treats ?
