Home dog cages: The misunderstood 'safe house for dogs'
-- Scientific interpretation of its real value and the rules of use
Many people stereotype the home dog cage as a cold tool to "restrict the dog's freedom." In fact, if the scientifically designed dog cage is used correctly, it is not only a "protective cover" for the growth of puppies, but also a "psychological safety zone" for adult dogs. This paper will disassemble the function, selection criteria and use taboo of the family dog cage, and restore its essence as a modern pet raising tool.
Home dog cage ≠ prison, but "dog den"
From the perspective of animal behavior, canine ancestors relied on caves for safety in the wild, and modern domestic dogs still retain this genetic memory. The ideal dog cage should simulate the function of a cave:
Space size: the dog can turn around when standing and stretch when lying down (too large is easy to lose the sense of wrapping);
Privacy design: three sides occlusion + top cover to create a semi-closed harbor;
Material selection: Priority breathable metal mesh (such as chrome-plated iron) or environmentally friendly resin, to avoid the risk of suffocation caused by completely closed plastic boxes.
