In Jail

The temporary heartbreak of a new puppy parent- putting the dog
in the crate when leaving or at night time. Look at this sad little creature whose mother has the nerve to put him in jail!
The night was a rough one. Lots of crying and yelping. At times he almost sounded like a monkey screaming. I laid on the floor in front of the crate for awhile (after I swore I wouldn't do it again. I spent the whole night in front of his kennel at the hotel in Flagstaff.). I realized, that even though my floor was more comfortable than a dirty hotel floor this had to stop.
12:50- crying again. Out we went to potty. Good boy!
2:50- Again. Same results.
5:30- Up, outside. Chicken wing for breakfast.
9:00- Made us leave (with Caprice) for coffee so Canon could have more alone experience.
We left the house to the sound of crying. When we returned it was quiet-- for awhile. Now he's sleeping at my feet. Respite for all of us!
