@dana-k actually Dana, I do not believe the trainers say that eventually, they come to like their 'safe place'. Mine now will stay and eat in his crate, when the door is open. If i try to close it, i see the look of a prisoner, and he definitely wants to get away. I would have felt the same, btw. Currently, when i go out i 'crate' him in my salon. Until now, no real damage was done, at least not different from the damage he tries to do (like eat the plants) when i am with him.
New Puppy, My little Gracie

golfrules, this test is very important to you. It will let you know what to expect for the future.
Its worth the price to know if your dog will get sick. -
Can it be done on the puppy? I don't have access to the parents.
-
Oh, yes, order the cheek swap…use it on your girl and in a bit of time, you will know.
-
Just how does one order this cheek swap? At my local vet?
-
No, my friend, go up and read lvoss post. Do what is says. It will let you know what the future holds for you and your beloved Gracie.
Please, do this. Its a bit of a hassle. So worth it. -
I understand now. I visited the site and will order the test tomorrow. Geoff

Geoff, all your Dogs are lovely, i've never heard of a Blue Tick Coon Hound before.
Your right Basenjis have beautiful neat feet, have you noticed that the two middle pads on each foot are joined at the bottom like a Wolves. -
What a beauty! Please keep posting those pics, I love her. We have a brindle boy but he is not as dark as Gracie.
