[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 407126, member: 6705"] Bubbles was crate trained shortly after husband first found him. husband was TDY for four days in 2002 - when he returned, the apartment looked like it had been burglarized, no BM, no kids. The cops were there before he found the note she left. It took him over an hour to get Bubbles to come out of the crate. And to this day, if Onyxx or I, or any female, raises our voice? He will go find a small, mostly enclosed spot to hide in. Our theory (no way to really know, of course) is that he was abused so badly by BM, while husband was not there, that he came to see the crate as his refuge. He will also run to husband if there's nowhere else to go. A couple of years back, the battery on his electric fence collar died, and BM picked him up. Mind, this wasn't even a day she got a visit with the kids, so why was she in our neigborhood?! Anyway, when we got him back he was [I]terrified.[/I] Would not come out from under our bed for I think 3 days - and yes, he held it that entire time. We fed him under the bed. Now - when we know she is due, we have to watch him if Jett isn't watching for her. He will hear her honk, look through the window and turn into vicious-dog - he is the sweetest thing on earth normally - and he does NOT want Jett leaving with her. Funny thing? It doesn't seem to matter what she is driving! He knows. When she brings Jett home? No problem with the dog, except him letting Jett know how much he is loved... [/QUOTE]
