I came home this afternoon after being gone for about an hour to see Brodi's crate bloody! I quickly took him out and inspected and could see it was his drool that had the blood in it. We checked his mouth and I didnt see any cuts or broken teeth but I notice now the white around his mouth looks pretty red and a little swollen. We had him in the big crate using the divider but he freaked out really bad. So then I switched and bought one of them smaller travel crates thinkin he would feel better in it..Nope he freaks out just as bad..I mean so bad to where my next door neighbor heard Brodi crying over by his house! I have been feeding him inside it along with giving him his kong in there and hes fine but as soon as I'm out of sight he bugs out and now to the point where he is hurting himself. I have my shirt in there for him and I turn the music on but it dont help. When I left today I gave him a treat inside there along with his kong but he wanted no part of either..I ignored his crying and just left but felt horrible when I came home and seen all the blood. He also drools to the point where him and his crate are soaked. I'm completely out of idea's but now I'm scared to leave him in it in fear of him really hurting himself. I have his crate in spare bedroom and have tried both ways of leaving the door open so he could see Chloe and also shutting the door. I don't know if seeing her will make it worse or not. I even put a watch on a stuffed animal inside the crate with him. Anything else I can try??
