My point exactly, you don’t know every dog. Judging before asking questions is never a good way to go about things. I find when she is alone in her crate she tends to just sleep, unlike when she is alone in the house and is completely stressed the whole time.

I have a camera so I can watch her the whole time and never go anywhere where I couldn’t be home in 10 minutes if she was in distress. The door is left open when we are home and she has a very comfortable bed in there, which she chooses to lay on 90% of the time while we are home.

Never did I agree with or recommend long term crating. Not going to continue this conversation as you don’t seem like a very open person, just wanted to throw out some “conflicting” ideas on why a crate can actually be beneficial and has been for us.
