Puggles are sociable dogs that enjoy company and don’t like to be left alone. That does not mean that they are not good apartment dogs or that they will tie you to the house all the time. All it means is that your dog’s training will have to focus a little more on this aspect.

Puggles are descendants of beagles and pugs and have inherited the friendly, affectionate, and sociable traits of both breeds. This makes them excellent companions who will bring you unconditional love and loyalty. But it is these characteristics that make them expect to have your company or that of another family member around all the time. While the Puggle is not the type of dog that you can leave alone all day while at work, proper training can ensure that it is happy and comfortable while you are alone for a few hours. The best way to do this is to train them in boxes.

There is a misconception that crate a dog is cruel. Not so! All modern dogs originate from the wild dogs that roamed the Earth eons ago. While these dogs were pack animals that roamed everywhere in search of their prey, they were also burrowing animals. For them, a den was a small cave, an outcrop of rock, or a shallow hole in the ground where they could feel safe from predators. This genetic instinct exists in modern dogs and to make your Puggle happy to be in his cage, all you need to do is encourage this instinct.

A wire cage is the best option, as your dog will be able to see what is going on around him. The size should be large enough for her to stand up and move around, as well as to hold some of her favorite toys and perhaps a bowl of water.

Start by placing the box in the busiest room in the house to get your Puggle used to it. Leave it there for a few days. Then let him watch you place a favorite treat just inside the box door. If he doesn’t take it right away, encourage him. If he’s still reluctant, leave him alone. He will collect it himself in due time. Once you get used to this, start putting the treat further into the box until it is at the back. After your Puggle is happy to enter the box and grab the treat from the back, close the box door for a few moments while eating. Stay close and comfort him if he becomes nervous. Keep increasing the time, but stay in the room with him. Once you’re happy to be in the box for 30 minutes, start leaving the room for a few minutes and gradually increase the duration.

Once your Puggle is happy in his cage for a few hours, you can start leaving him home alone. Make sure it has a ride before it is packed so it doesn’t get dirty there. Leaving some toys in the box will keep him busy.
