| Mocha escaped his CRATE!! Ok, I know that Yorkies are very smart, but I had no idea they were THIS smart! My 15 week old Mocha has figured out how to open his crate door Even I sometimes have trouble getting that thing open What am I to do now? He can climb out of pens, and now he can open doors too I might have to board him at my vet's this weekend, but now I'm worried that my little Houdini might manage to get out his kennel in there too What am I going to do with this little escape artist? |

| LOL I'm glad his sister doesn't do those naughty things. Can you put a rubber band around it somehow where it won't come open? I know with this xpen, Steve had to make a top for it, as when we got fritz, he would climb over it...Send him to Aunt Sherrie, I'll watch him while you go on your trip...LOL |

| I will try the rubber band thing. Hopefully he doesn't chew right through it and still get out I'd send him over to you, but he might escape from the plane along the way Quote:

| I was worried Elphaba might figure out how to get out of hers...it wouldn't be hard if she realized the little lever to push on. So for a while I always put her toy box in front of the door so she couldn't move the lever. |

| HAHAHAHA....... I used to keep Rocky in my bedroom, when I went tow work. I would keep the door open but keep it blocked with a cardboard that was long enough to block it and was about 2ft tall. Well I came home one day and rocky met me at the front door, I was freaked out@!!! next day? same thing, next day the same. Little monkey learned to jumo over it with great results and was roaming the appartment all to himself. Now the place is all his, I just seal off the kitchen and he doest care for it either. YIORKIES ARE NOT MEANT TO BE LOCKED UP!! |

| I'd be really impressed if I opened up my luggage and he popped out lol. I hate the thought of boarding him, but I just don't trust him with anybody who doesn't have a Yorkie lol. Marci (marcerella02) would've gladly taken him but it just so happens that we're both going away on the same weekend |

| I had a pup that could do that, now I use a clip, it looks like the end of a leash. I the latch on the door closed with that.
