I'm not much help as I crate mine as well except for my 4 year old foster and that's because he's non-destructive. Honestly, sounds like he's either bored or he has separation anxiety when you are gone. Have you tried filling your kongs with peanut butter, treats, etc, and freezing it? It makes it last longer. There are also puzzle games that can entertain them.
Hope you find a solution!
Lol, well he's not going anywhere for right now so hopefully the oh will just forget that he's not ours hahaha... he is about to go through heartworm treatment poor boy
haha i kinda forgot to post about it since most people i saw at camp. lol i'm sorry. yeah we worked things out, me being gone for 10 days helped as well. so no moving, and we're better than ever.
ordered one from stacey and then of course her sewing machine broke at camp so she's mailing it to me. lol she did make me police leads that i've been using though for the time being. i can't wait for my belt!
