It depends. I've never had to crate another breed forever, but my one basenji would get destructive if left alone.. the 2nd one would pee on my bed. So crating it was. However, I'm home so they were rarely crated. My current basenji is fine loose as long as she's alone. So like they said, do it slow, confine to an area that is safe and see how it works out. But if you need to keep crating, most dogs sleep far more than people.. up to 17 hrs a day. Just exercise before and lots after so they aren't bored.
Stop Following Me!!

Duke and Daisy are driving me crazy right now. They are following my every move at the heel. They ate their dinner, have water and just came in from outside - the only thing I think they want is a chewy (rawhide). I just threw out 2 stumps as I always do when 1-1/2 inches left on them. I don't have any more today. <<gggrrrrrrr>>:rolleyes:</gggrrrrrrr>

Ha Ha! Uh - no bacon, but I just checked my socks for anything else…they're clean. It's so odd that both are working in tandum with whatever mission they're on.
