Buddy had a good first night. :)
We went to bed around midnight and put him in his crate. We lined the bottom of the crate with some towels and the fleece blanket DDR gave us in our goodie bag. We put the crate in our bedroom so he didn't feel lonely. Since he is used to sleeping in a crate, he did well. He whimpered for about ten minutes and sounded a bit restless in his cage, but he quickly settled down. I think he would have been fine curled up on a doggie bed on the floor or in bed with us, but again, thinking about his future home, we decided to keep him in his crate.
Around 7:30am he started making some sound. My husband let him out of his crate and he immediately went to the back door and then outside to go potty.
