His Kong! Thanks.
Never would have thought of water... I'll bring a couple gallons.
Unfortantly, he has just started crate training, so he still does not see it as a safe haven...

He expects not to be in there if people are home, we have just started working on that, but we want to have it if we need it.
I am hoping that I can get my dad to agree to keep Little Bear the killer Pom in my parents bedroom for at least some of the time, so I can let Doc be a puppy and off his leash...
We plan on staying 3 days. They do have a fenced back yard, so we can go outside and play. Even at home he spends 95% of his time close enought to one of us that he could touch us (or is leaning on us

) So hopefully it won't be to hard on him. If it is we may have to leave early...
(((Just thought I should bring our baby gate that we use at the steps to the basement. Then we can seperate rooms between the dogs...)))
