@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.

Thanks. Sophie loves to run, she is just like both her parents. Right now she is going through a whopper of a false pregnancy but didn't let that get in her way of chasing those bags. She thoroughly enjoys herself out on the field and is a joy to watch.

The ASFA standings for 2008 just posted to the website. So I guess I should add that Sophie finished the year as Number 8 basenji in ASFA followed by her mom, Rally, at Number 9 and her half sister, Rio, and half brother, Cole, both in a tie at Number 20.
