Can I tell an owner the crate for their dog is too small?
I’m boarding a dog in my apartment at the moment. The owner brought her crate because he said she gets anxiety when left alone and starts destroying things. He mentioned he’s left her in the crate up to six hours but she could probably be in it up to 8 hours.
My concern is that the crate is too small for her! She has to crouch down to get in and curl up to stay in it. I can’t imagine leaving her in the crate for 6 hours! I’ve only left her in for an hour max and only because it was absolutely necessary for me to leave her home alone. I haven’t left her alone out of the crate so I don’t know how severe her anxiety issues are. I also don’t know how often she’s left alone in the crate at home.
She looks like she’s loved and well taken care of, don’t see signs of neglect. Would it be okay to tell the owner about my concern or should I just let it go?
