Since we got Laila's big girl crate I have been going crazy to try to figure out a better solution for 2 big crates in my kitchen. I decided yesterday that something had to be done especially since we are starting on a entire home remodel with the kitchen #1 on my priority list. I put the boxerkids and for the most part the skin kids in the backyard to play, enjoy the nice weather, and stay out of my way. After a couple of hours of furious cleaning (including taking both crates out to front yard for good scrub down) I hear
Taz barking at the sliding glass door. It finally occured to me that he was staring at the spot where his crate had been right inside the door and barking. He would look at his empty spot which now held the kitchen table, look back at the spot and bark. I laughed so hard when I realized he must have thought I was kicking him out. So I hurried up and finished clearing out his new crate spot, brought it back in, set it up with fresh clean blankies and a greenie. When I brought him in to show him that mommy was just making it better he flopped down in his crate, grabbed his greenie, and gave me a look as if to say whew, thank's mom I was really worried. I think he likes his new location better because he can now see the TV and watch cartoons with the kids from his bed. Silly old man
