it was only a matter of time, really.
the devil dogs were at it again. this time, chloe and sadie managed to "liberate themselves" from the crate they reside in when we are not home to supervise, i.e. worship them. their crate is really an indoor pen that takes up roughly a third of my family room -- plenty of room in which to provide them with all of the comforts they should desire through out the day -- a bed to lie on, toys, water, snackies. it's like daycare without having an underpaid teenage girl around to watch jerry springer and make phone calls all day.
honestly, though, i'd gladly remove the monstrosity from my family room and regain the 10 square feet it consumes. but as long as miss chloe has a taste for wood, paper and electrical cords, she will be confined for her safety. (yes, she's chewed through 3 PLUGGED in electrical cords already. if she were a cat, she'd be missing a few lives. as a dog, we're not sure how she's managed to survive thus far.)
mam must not have fully closed the latch on their crate door before heading back to work after lunch. normally he comes home at lunch, lets them out to do leave little elephant-sized presents in the backyard, and bundles them back up in crate before leaving.
imagine our surprise when we arrived home that evening to discover both of them sitting and wagging their tails at the backdoor waiting for us, door to their crate wide open.
what an even bigger surprise to STILL not have come across anything that was destroyed!

They're showing you that you can trust them! Let them run free!! Of course, my pup rules my house so maybe I'm not best for offering doggie advice. :-)
