When we brought Ellie home, she inherited a 42" KONG crate with a door on the front and one on the side...AWESOME crate that worked great with our last Bully for the short time she was able to use it. Well, from day 1 we had a divider in the middle of the crate, but decided that we would try tonight without the divider. Ellie could still comfortably stand, turn, and lay down in her half of the crate that she had been used to, but there just wasn't enough room for her to really stretch out or sling her toys around. I can honestly say that I don't remember the last time that she had an accident at night or from the time we leave in the mornings until I come home at lunch to give her a break, so hopefully the success continues. Lunch until home in the evenings is a different story though as she usually has quite a bit of water, so we're still working on that. She seemed so excited when I took the divider out and opened the crate door on the side. She was running in and out of the crate, head butting me, licking my arms and face, and just seemed excited. Funny part is that she's "napping" before her final potty of the night and she's curled up at the front end of the crate that she's accustomed to.
