I myself have always left Gizmo in his xpen when I go to my drs appts. And he's never had an issue. I did a test today and blocked off the upstairs, as there is nothing he can get hurt on, or get into in the downstairs. So I let him stay out of his pen today while I went to the drs :-) he was perfect !!! Since he's almost a yr old I figured I would try it and see what he would do. Other than emptying his toy box and playing my house was in perfect order when I got home. He was just sleeping on the back of the couch watching out the window waiting for me when I walked up :-) I totally agree, never ever ever leave your pup in the car for even a second no matter what :-( |
