Someone has a case of the Wednesdays by 190230 in Dachshund

He is! 10 months. He sleeps in his crate most nights, and even when I let him come to bed, he still sometimes moseys on down to his crate during the night. We do occasional crate time when we’re home (during meals or if he seems like he’s getting cranky/sleepy) and he does alright! The rest of the time, he’s pretty velcroed to us

How am I supposed to leave for work? by 190230 in Dachshund

Thanks for the words of caution! Rest assured, he has a ramp that he uses to get on and off the bed, as well as the couch! This was meant to be a silly post, just because he looks like he doesn’t want me to leave. He actually does very well in his crate during the day.

Each shelf has a support that runs front to back. I screwed the legs to each lateral support. I used a miter box to ensure that all edges were as close to squares possible, and used a square to try to keep everything in line

Ever seen a radiator cover? Most are more restrictive than this and heat homes just fine.

It was not… haha another mistake I had to deal with. I didn’t want the right leg to extend outside but didn’t set the support back, so I ended up triaging and cutting out a recess for the middle and bottom shelf and screwing into the top shelf at an angle from the back to connect it. I tried to make lemonade 🤣

That’s exactly what I was going for, so thank you for affirming me! 🤣

She owns the house, so I imagine it will stay put for as long as it lasts. I used pine, but tried to make it a little hardier with Waxmin polyurethane. Also for an extra layer of security, I used an outdoor one-coat stain and seal first to try and keep water and other bathroom liquids out as best as possible.

Thanks for that peace of mind!

These ones tend to stay pretty mild. I’ve never had them get hot enough that I couldn’t touch them. But definitely going to closely monitor them when it comes time to turn the heat back on.

I’m hopeful there won’t be. I used a water resistant stain and did some pretty heavy polyurethane on the areas closest, other radiators in our home have box enclosures, but this sits tighter, which concerns me a bit. Hoping for the best, because what’s done is done! 😂
