What is a good age to stop crate training your puppy?
I’ve been crate training my German Shepherd for a little over 3 months. He’s getting pretty big which tells me (bigger crate). What is a good age or time to stop crate training and let him roam around freely when I am gone?
I don’t go by age, I go by behavior. If you feel you can trust him to not soil in the house or destroy your things, he’s ready. I have yet to find a dog trustworthy with the WHOLE house (or apartment) until around 2 years of age. Before you buy the next size crate, try leaving him in a puppy proof bedroom when you run an errand. Walk him first, make sure he eliminates on the walk and put him in the room with a kong (and the TV on). This will limit the destruction he can do. When you come back (an hour at the most), see how he has done. If he has done any damage or soiled, then you know to buy the next crate. I wouldn’t just go one size up, though. I would buy the largest and section the back end off. That’s what we did and it saved us money in the long run. We put a cooler in the back of the crate with the lid duck taped shut. She’s 18 months and has been in the bedroom for the past year. She won’t be allowed full run of the house for at least another six months, I’m sure. It’s fine. She loves the bedroom, her bed, her toys.
