Today was much calmer at the workshop and after three days, the environment much more familiar, so I had the cage door open the majority of the day. The goal is to not have the door on the crate at all. Gives Dulce boundaries, and gives her added safety from getting stepped on as she snoozes the majority of the day. Yes, people, your dog spends most of its day snoozing.
At lunch, I went without cage (and dummy me forgot she had put a carbineer on her belt loop for this purpose) to the cafeteria, and managed to get lunch and drink without spilling any. I actually had a meal without her in the crate. We did move to the back of the room as she wanted to each plate of food when it came in.
I did end up with a high blood sugar and took it as a training opportunity. Unfortunately when you still cheesecake from a friend, it still has carbs.
