Well, we got our puppy at the beginning of the summer when my wife was finished with school (she is a teacher). Now that she is getting ready to go back to school in two weeks, what would be the best way to get our puppy (now around 4 months old) ready to spend most of the day in her crate? We were thinking that each day this week and next that we would gradually work up the hours that she is in the crate and then for the first few weeks, I would go home at lunch and let her out/play (I work about 30 mins from where I live).
Any suggestions on what will work? We were thinking about putting her in our basement (it is finished) but we do not want her to releive herself down there and actually move her potty training back a few steps.
