You might notice that the original post is 5 years old.

While you may consider crating a dog to be cruel, I know many dogs that have ended up in shelters that could have avoided the trip if they had been crate trained. I also know several dogs that are crated when they are to be left home alone (including my own pom) and none of them are terrified. They are however safe from dangers they don't understand and they aren't indulging in behaviours that can get them killed.
