Very timely posting Karlin 
John and I left for the movies last night. J&S have freedom in the family room/kitchen and Micah has a large pvc type tall x-pen he goes in with a bed and some toys. We got home 3 1/2 hours later to find Micah in the kitchen with Jake!! He had (I assume) pounded and pawed on the door enough to get it open. There was....sitting in the kitchen....pen door wide open. Little stinker!! Thankfully nothing was chewed, no messes anywhere and no one seemed to be worse for the wear. Today I'm going to pen him, go out back and watch to see what he does. I will foil this little man....he's not going to get the best of me
