The document discusses how crating can benefit puppies. It notes that puppies are descended from wolves that found comfort in dens, and modern dogs also find solace in their own space. When not being watched, puppies should be confined to an area like a crate to prevent accidents. Owners must take puppies out frequently and praise them for relieving themselves in the proper place. Crating can also provide a sanctuary for over-excited puppies and protection from young children by enforcing quiet time.
