May I ask how you transitioned her?? Thanks!!!
DUSTY and DIXIE enjoyed their frosty paws! I told him it was cuz he was soooo special for being good while mom was at work but he could care less. He just wanted the treat!

I started to transition him from the crate about a month or so ago. If I would be gone for short periods of time, he was left out with something to occupy his time. I never make a fuss when I'm about to leave since this caused seperation anxiety in Dixie. I just give him something to focus on other than me leaving and he was fine. Gradually I would make it longer periods of time until I felt comfortable leaving him out all day. He only had one "mishap" during the transition and that was more my fault than his. He raided the garbage!
