Is it harmful to the feet if the dog crate is not padded?

Whether it is harmful to the feet if there is no mat in the dog cage depends on the size of the dog. If it is a small dog, it is best to put it in it. After all, they may get their feet stuck. If it is a large dog, there is generally no need to put it in it. The feet generally cannot get stuck, but putting a mat on them is definitely better than not putting them on. The only disadvantage is that they need to be cleaned frequently.

Tips:

Dogs cannot be kept in cages all the time. They need to spend a certain amount of time every day to digest their energy.
