Getting your Dog Comfortable
in his Kennel/Dog Run
A bit of effort on your part can go a long way to ensure your dog adjusts well to his new kennel/dog run. Taking
the time to introduce your dog to life in the kennel/dog run will lead to a better experience for both you and
your pet. Your neighbours may be much happier too!
Kennel/dog run familiarization may take several days or even weeks, depending on your dog's age,
temperament, and past experiences. It's important to keep two things in mind while kennel/dog run training:
The dog kennel/dog run should always be associated with something pleasant, and training should take place in
a series of small steps. Don't go too fast!
First, introduce your dog to the kennel/dog run by placing a favourite toy, blanket or beloved object into the
kennel/dog run. Make sure the kennel/dog run door is open and secured so that it won't hit or frighten your
dog. To encourage your dog to enter the kennel/dog run, try dropping some small food treats nearby, then just
inside the door, and fi nally, all the way inside of the kennel/dog run. If he refuses to go all the way in the kennel/
dog run at fi rst, that's okay, don't force the issue. If he isn't interested in treats, try throwing a favourite toy in
the kennel/dog run. Don't expect instant results, this process may take several days.
When he enters the kennel/dog run, offer enthusiastic verbal praise. Quietly close the gate and secure it. Never
slam the gate after your dog enters. He should regard his kennel/dog run as a safe place rather than a punitive
time-out area.
For best results, introduce your pet to his new kennel/dog run enclosure for brief periods over time. Stay
nearby. Some pets may try to bite or chew the enclosure; some may try to climb out. Your pet may bark or
whine. Verbally reassure him. Increase the length of time he is contained until you believe he's comfortable in
his new kennel/dog run. Pet toys and other familiar objects can be reassuring to our pet, and help to pass the time
while he's contained.
Consult your veterinarian or other pet professional to make your pet's transition to the kennel/dog run as
stress-free as possible.
• Make sure your pet has water at all times.
• Do not kennel/house a dog outside in hot or cold weather without other shelter.
