I didn't say that ALL dogs like crates as i know they don't. and i do strongly agree that crates should never be used for a punishment.
I have SBT's.

Could just have been my boys. I never considered using a cage on a long term basis tbh. For me is was just while they were being toilet trained, and until i was happy with leaving them alone together. Once they were toilet trained, i only ever used the cage when i went out, as at night they slept (and still do) on my bed. Once i started leaving them together, it seemed a bit redundant as they wouldnt go in it.
I suppose the non-regular use of it might have been why they never took to it like some others.
