A uniquely American phenomenon too, part of our tendency toward impatience and valuing convenience above all. Why bother to actually TRAIN your dog? Just “put it away” when you’re not playing with it, like any other “possession.”Ugh.
My friend tells her boys to “go to their room”. And they do. The doors of the cages are left open. I didn’t realize that was called a crate. Look like travel cages to me.

Crates (read cages)…worst trend over the last two decades for dogs, IMO.
