Yes! Funny you should mention waist-high crates! I was just telling my husband today that if/when I do this again, I'm going to have to evaluate the possibility of getting the pen up higher. I've done it with other things in the house, including the washer and dryer…why not this?
Great! It's really good to know things are looking up. What a first-time experience this has been so far!
Thanks for your support!
