When pen guiding a dog the age doesnt really matter until they become old enough for it. It is usually good to train a dog in the early stages but it can not bar one from the training. Despite the age, pet training is compulsory for every dog, but all this said, not each dog will make it to be petted.
It might not be a right age to handle an older dog in confined space; if taken the same condition in your situation you would need to gate the baby in the kitchen corner.
Crating an elderly dog is delicate and must be handled with utmost care. Older dogs do not have the flexibility and the level of control that they used to in young age. First and foremost, the dog has to be made comfortable in open cages with motivators like toys and food.
Once the dog is getting acquainted to that, now you may lock it in and let it stay there for a longer period of time, when it is fully going on well with that it can be locked up for much longer time. When released it must be in full view of the owner.
In cases of accidents, clean up and go ahead. If an old dog is in the middle of having an accident, it should be taken to the potty area. It should not be scared or bewildered along the process.
Older dogs have their ways to love, understanding, comfort level and tolerance levels. And we have to be responsible enough to understand the accidents, if any, and how to deal with it. Consulting a vet is a wise thing to do if they are not abiding to the house training even after long. Older dogs could develop numerous medical problems that could affect their bladder and bowels. We need to be very careful and informed.
Compassion, love, understanding and patience are the key things while crate training a dog. Dogs are very loyal, faithful and always want to please kind. But, as it gets older, it finds hard to adapt to change.
Keep assured that they are kept loved at all stages so that they please you, no matter training you give to them.
