Crate training your puppy
Crate training is a method of training puppies in which a crate (an indoor kennel) is used. The crate must be large enough to allow the puppy to lie down and turn around without allowing room to soil outside the bed. Dogs that associate their crate with positive experiences, such as feeding, may continue to use it by choice for the rest of their lives. It should never be used a form of punishment.
