You can also use baby gates or an exercise pen.
Place the crate in a room in the house where he can be near the family. Being alone could upset him more. If he’s in a family room, make sure the family stays calm so the dog will remain calm.
If you take your dog for a short walk, keep him away from other animals. Don’t take him to the dog park and take other pets outside at a different time.
You can find these toys at pet stores or online.
You also may want to take him onto the porch on a leash. This allows him to enjoy the fresh air but keeps him close to you.
Carefully monitor your dog and keep him on a short leash. Many dogs will have so much pent up energy that they take off running and may try to pull the leash from your hands. Try not to let the dog pull hard on the leash or overexert himself. If the dog is fighting the leash too much and may hurt himself, take him back inside.
