Welcoming a dog into your home should add joy, not extra stress. Some dogs, while extremely loving, may have an overabundance of energy or anxiety that could lead to destructive behavior affecting not only your belongs but the pet itself. Crate training is an excellent modality to provide structure and support for your dog. A crate can be a safe, quiet refuge for the pet to decompress as well as set firm boundaries. However, an enormous set-back that can occur with this method of behavior modification, is if the crate itself is a source of destruction or self-harm.
Wire crates can be bent and torn by a pet in distress. This can lead to injury and added anxiety that could negatively affect outcomes of future training. A sturdy, pet friendly crate such as Composure Crates offer a perfect solution. These crates are strong and durable, yet lightweight so they can be easily moved to a new location, or the back of a vehicle. The smooth metal surface will not cause any abrasions to a muzzle or limb and the bars are wide and adroitly spaced to allow the dog to see out but not permissible to a nose or pawing getting stuck. The non-porous surface is also amenable to easy clean up and disinfection if needed.
In addition to the traditional vertical bars for the four walls, the door of Composure Crates is a smooth solid metal plate that acts as a visual barrier that a pet may lay behind if it desires more privacy. The floor and roof of the crates are also compromised of a smooth metal plate for comfort, seclusion and stability. All hardware is flush so there are no sharp protruding metal pieces. The locking pin is also smooth, large and durable, not easily lost and more reliable than the sliding latch mechanism common on wire crates. The crates can be assembled and disassembled in a few steps with an easy-to-follow instruction manual.
A unique feature of Composure Crates is its unassuming design. The simple geometry and even, flat surface of the top of the crate allow it to fit in many opportune places around the home, whether it is in a corner or under a table. Composure Crates come in a variety of sizes to ensure that there is a perfect fit for your canine companion. Boasting a plain, solid, medium to dark brown color, the crate can blend in with furniture and not stand out like an eyesore. Not everyone is open to accepting that their dog may have anxiety and need a crate, however the family at Composure Crates understands the need for dogs to feel comfortable and improve self-control. Each crate has been designed with the knowledge that these behavior modification tools are backed by humane and welfare organizations. Composure Crates also come with a ten year warranty, which encompasses a large portion of a dog’s longevity.
Composure Crates is an American, family-owned, dog-loving company that wants to help owners give their pets the best opportunity for successful cohabitation to live their best lives.
