So we decided to not keep Sophie in the crate 24/7. Seems her rear has gotten to the pump she WANTS to move around and she is. Saturday morning at 3am when i was feeding her--after she finished i went to pick her up and she took off like a lightning bolt!!! Well she's back to acting like a puppy, let's us know when she has to do her business, and is sleeping at night mostly like normal. It's pretty incredible. Would be nice if she could be like this for the duration but I'm sure she'll get bad again at some point but we are pretty happy and amazed.
