5-9-08: Our boy wasn’t so sure about the car, but true to form, he let me lift him in and never even thought about being anything other than a sweetheart. He dozed all the way to my house, but kept one eye open, figuratively-speaking, very on edge. This guy has learned that letting your guard down is a BAD idea, and he is not going to let anyone catch him unprepared. Turns out this fellow is not liking the idea of being alone and screamed a lot when I was not in his sight. It sounded like someone was being murdered when I left him in the yard and walked my dog down the block! Ditto for crate time. Thankfully, I got a better feel for what he needed/wanted/was afraid of after several attempts at crating, and he slept through the night in his crate. I was awake every 20 minutes listening for him, but he was fine.
