[nagdu] tie downs

Wed Feb 29 18:25:44 UTC 2012

Hi Mark,

Sometimes, the answer to a prayer is "no". 

You will undoubtedly find at least one time in your life where you will be better to leave your dog at home. It's really in both of your best interests to figure out how to make this as comfortable as possible for you and your dog. 

I'm personally a fan of crates for this purpose, and my dog doesn't mind that. While I'm very confident of his house behavior, I still crate Leno if I'm not with him (rare) or at night while we're asleep (always),, if for no other reason than I'll know where to find any unexpected surprises in the morning. Heck, that's a good enough reason right there.
