      - You put elbow grease on the carpet?!?!?!? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!? -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 30, 07:33
He was doing great for months - he loved his bed (which has turned out to be our papasan chair). - kelly Jul 30, 07:27 10
- Are you spending more time away from home lately? - TWuG Jul 30, 07:29 9
  - Nope. - kelly Jul 30, 07:34 7
    - did he used to hang out in his crate on his own? -- nm - Andie Jul 30, 07:36 6

      - if he did you just took his "room" away from him. -- nm - lileve Jul 30, 07:36 3
        
        He hasn't been in the crate in like 2 months unless strangers were in the house and he was acting up a bit. - Will Hunting Jul 30, 07:41 2
        
        heh. - kelly Jul 30, 07:44
        
        Not sure what to do. I would talk to the vet or a trainer for some tips. Sounds like he's a momma/pappas boy. -- nm - lileve Jul 30, 07:43
