Unfortunately, if Mia is not trained to be in a kennel, then being confined may be quite scary for her. I am attaching a link below with more information about crate training an adult dog. https://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=1694 The key will be to slowly get her used to being confined in that area before you leave her. Be sure to feed her in there and take your time getting her used to it before actually closing her in the area. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.
