Why do people put their dogs in crates at night? It seems a bit cruel or unnecessary to me. I don't think any guide dog owners ever do that here, although some puppy walkers may do if the dogs are not house trained yet or are still good house wreckers!!! I can understand that but not why anyone would choose to crate a guide dog every night?

I let him run loose since I had some break in my apartment. Before that he was always in the crate at night, but now he has free run at night. I do believe he would alert me if some one was trying to break in. Cathy & Pilot Dog, Tiny:
