New to this Breed

I am new the owning this breed. Any tips or tricks would be great. She is about ten weeks and scared of everything. This is the first day. So to be expected, any tips or tricks would be appreciated. She is unlike any other breed. I've had

Very cautious, very fearful somewhat and her recall sucks. But from what i've read, that is something I have to work on. I know I have to take training from a different angle. As far as positive reinforcement and not getting upset with her.

Dog Crate

My almost 2 year old Irish setter has figured out how to unlock his crate when no one is home. From what I’ve seen when he is crated during meals he has managed to lick and nudge the sliding locks until they are undone. I tried using carabiners to lock the locks in place and he’s managed to bend them through his determined efforts. He has also managed to bend the crate due to his escape efforts. Do you all know of any crates that are harder to unlock?
