More good than harm

More good than harm

One of the great misconceptions that people have about dogs involves looking at them as if you were looking at a human. Dogs may be closer to humans than any other animal in terms of regular social interactions but they are still a completely different species and they have different needs and different ways to see the world. For example, while humans like large spaces and feel bad when confined to a small space, dogs, which are den animals as much as they are pack and social animals, enjoy being in confined spaces. That is why dog cages and crates are so important when you’re training your dog.

While some people may see a dog inside a cage fit in a car and think that the dog is being cruelly handled, the fact is it is the safest place for the dog to be and possibly the most comfortable. It allows the dog to sleep inside a confined and comfortable space where it can relax and not be constantly hassled by outside stimuli which would only make it more stressed. It’s also safer for the people in the car since it reduces distractions potentially caused by the dog and prevents accidents.
