Leaving dog in crate while working full time
    #23350266 - 06/16/16 09:05 AM (7 years, 7 months ago)

I will be moving in 2 weeks to the next town over.
I currently work 8-5pm and leave by 7:20am to arrive a little early at work
Currently during my lunch break I go home and walk my dog.
She is 6 months old and I keep her in her crate while I’m gone.
I can’t trust that she will behave out of the crate while I’m gone because she has some destructive behavior when I even close the door to take a piss. She has separation anxiety for sure.

I don’t mind keeping her in the crate for 5 hours then coming back to work after lunch.

But the entire work day has me stressed out already.

My new problem is that I won’t be able to go home and make it back on time each day since I will live 10 minutes further away.
No family members live close by.
No friends live close by or have time to take my dog outside
I tried looking for a dog walker but have no luck every time.
I live in a decently small town to start so it’s not that easy.

Any advice?

This is why I refuse to own a dog unless I have the space for it to roam or have a dog house. Your dog won't ever learn if it's kept in a crate, no time for it to grow out of the behaviour. You need a distraction, another animal or a game or a big smelly bone, something. That or you need to move. I know it's not easy  because I've been in this situation, but it's just unfair for the dog.

it's fine as long as you meet its needs for excersize and attention every day when you get home.  What breed is it?

As a puppy I understand leaving them in the crate. Too much mischief for a little puppy to get into. It's sad but once they get older you'll be able to leave them out. Just as a puppy you kinda gotta do it

IDK ask your boss if you can have a few extra mins on your break so you can go let him out. It's worth asking at least

It's a puppy though. He will learn. All the dogs I and my family has had, as puppies they stay in the crate. Once they learn how to be a bit more responsible you can let them out

My understanding is that not having the opportunity to act out some impulse tends to reinforce not doing it.

Puppies always get into so much mischeif, you really gotta watch em. My friend had a 3 month old yellow lab who got into the neighbors pool chemicals somehow and he died from it

Fuck the dog. It's unfair on your neighbours to keep a dog that has "separation anxiety" that does fuck all but bark from the minute you leave your house.

I have one barking it's fucking mouth off right now, because the idiot owner is out, and locks the cunting thing out in the back garden with no shelter at all,and, right now, we're having a thunder storm with pissing rain...you can imagine.

I was going to say that dipshit dog owning cunts should be strung up alonside their barky little bastard pets, but, I thought that might come across as a little bit harsh.

Get it another dog companion to keep it company and keep away the lonely feeling when you're gone all day.
Grow it out of the 'cage' phase, can't learn right and wrong if you don't do wrong.

Haha that's what my parents do. They have 2 dogs at about the same age and they are straight homies. They def keep eachother company throughout the day. They probably play with eachother when were gone too because when we get home sometimes the place is a mess with dog toys everywhere

You'll give your dog mental and health issues if you keep him locked up for long periods of time. Can't take care of a dog, lose the dog.

My dog loves her crate. I put a blanket over the crate so she feels like she's hidden. She likes to be hidden like a snake. There's also a blanket in the crate that she wraps herself up in.

If you crate train a puppy early on and use the crate properly, not as a punishment, they love their crates, it's like their own room. My dog spends a ton of time in her box, I just leave it open all the time now and she comes and goes as she pleases.

When I moved into a new apartment with no other dogs to play with mine and no yard, I used the crate for a couple weeks. I asked the neighbors if they heard any ruckus from my place while I was gone. They said no, so I let her loose. She hasn't done anything but tear up tissues.

It's completely normal to leave puppies in their crates while owners are at work. Just an FYI

It's not going to fuck the dog up in any kind of major way at all

Yeah my dauchshund loves her crate. We call it her "hotel" because she loves it so much. It's her safe space. She does the same thing too, we leave the crate open but she chooses to be in there whenever she wants to take a nap. She wraps herself up in her blanket in there and just passes out. If we can't find her we just check her crate and there she is

this is absolutley true. 


Fuck all you people who havent had to deal with this situation.  I hope you are tested.

Goldendoodles are fucking dumb.  And have a high pitch bark.  If I lived next door I would probably blow my head off.  Or the dog would disappear one.  Prolly the latter.
