Change in Crate behavior

All our dogs are fine with going in their crates when we go to work..after all, they go in there with a kong that contains a milkbone and cheese!

For the last three, or so, days, Lizzie is suddenly reluctant to get in her crate.

I don't know what's changed. Gordie (demon cat) sleeps on her crate during the day, but this is not new.

Any ideas? I feel badly putting her in there now.

I would make sure it was really clean - she may have noticed a new smell in it?

The only other thing that occurs to me is could it be near a window and getting more sun or something? maybe its too hot during the day?

Puzzling :lmt:

Interesting...I did catch Gordie sleeping in there, and I wonder if she's angry about it. I'll give it a good cleaning, and wash her blanket.

She's not by a window, so hopefully the smell is the problem.

Thanks (I never thought of that!)

No problem - I have a very picky female :wink:
