    Crate, crate, crate

    I had a nightmare with my pup. I brought Chester home at 10 weeks old and like you had a crate waiting for him. He has always been a free-roamer and lives for being in the outdoors.

    Hi all, My name is Andy and I am from Chester in the UK. I have a seven month old brindle boy (cleverly named - Chester)! I read a lot of posts here before Chester arrived and I learned a lot. I look forward to asking more questions and possibly helping others who are having any similar...
