Crate training is an effective way to train a new puppy. Whilte they are effective for training they are also usually fairly ugly. Most pet shops will not give you any crates that will match your decorating style. Most often they are metal or plastic monstrosities. This will not be a big issue if you will use your crate in the garage or for traveling. 
 
But if you are like most people your puppy’s crate will be in our homes. There are a couple of effective ways to fix an ugly crate. The two biggest options available to your are to select a crate that looks like real furniture or purchase a dog crate cover. 
 
Dog crate covers are made in a wide variety of fabrics. There are an almost unlimited amount of choices when it comes to the color and pattern of your dog crate cover. Because they are made to have a tight fit on your dog crate you will need to take care and order the right size. 
 
A dogs crate cover is an easy and inexpensive way to improve the appearance of your dog crate. The will also help to create a safe and cozy environment for your dog. This can make the crate feel more like a den for your dog. Crate covers will usually cost less than $40. Another option is to buy a crate designed to look more like regular furniture. Wicker crates are very popular. These crates do not clean out easily like plastic and metal so you should wait until your dog is potty trained to use wicker. Wood crates that look just like high end pieces of furniture are also available. The crate is hidden under a table top and almost disappears. These crates will not be cheap or easy to clean so do not buy one until your dog is fully trained.
