Chihuahua crate training can be carried out pretty easily if you have the right combination of tools and technique. You're about to discover what I consider an unbelievably effective method for training your Chihuahua to make use of crates as a way of gratifying his instincts.
See, I have a Chihuahua which I named Flamey and let me tell you somethingShe's a real handful! If you think that Chihuahua crate training is difficult, wellFlamey made it much, much, much more difficult!
I had a tough time getting her to use the crate which I bought for around $125!
At first she was terrified of the crate and when she finally got used to it, she started sniffing the thing from top to bottom but she refused to enter.
My wife thought it was the crate size that was bothering Flamey which I doubted as it was spacious enough. After all, I paid $125 for the darn thing. It's the biggest one available at the pet store!
Anyway, her peeing got even worse (peed on my couch) so I started searching for ways to train a dog to use crates. I also wanted to get her on an obedience training program.
Fortunately, I found a dog clicker training guide that provides step-by-step training instructions on shaping the behavior of any breed of dog.

And thanks to the training technique outlined in the guide, I can tell you outright that Chihuahua crate training is not as hard as you think.
Here are some training techniques to assist you with your Chihuahua crate issue
A consistent crate training schedule must be set up from the get-go. See, I wasn't consistent with Flamey's crate training schedule and as a result, she never bothered to use the crate for her "business".
You must also establish a relief place for your Chihuahua. And every time you take her there, be sure to enter via the SAME room access.
The relief area is an ideal place for teaching your dog the potty command. Repeat the command several times and if she relieves herself in this area, take out the clicker, click and give her a reward. Conduct your Chihuahua crate training sessions effectively by performing this clicking process whenever she enters it.
So, the best way to crate train your Chihuahua is to teach her to be fluent in performing desirable behaviors.
You can do this on your own by using a step-by-step clicker guide with video exercises. They can be downloaded directly to your computer hard drive.
If you follow the steps carefully, you can train your Chihuahua to do almost anything. Go to this link: Complete Clicker Academy Guide to check out download details for the guide.
