I guess I must be one of the lucky ones. I have never confined Tulie while she was home alone. Tulie is now nine, and although she goes most places with me, there are times that I do leave her home alone. She has NEVER gotten into anything. I do nothing special to prepare the house before leaving either.
I have left Tulie at several friends places, alone and with their dogs, and still no problems. Even at my parents place where there are numerous things she could probably get into, have not been a problem. In fact, it has suprised me at times when some people question me about leaving Tulie. It's just never been an issue with her.
I do understand and think it's great that owners know their own dogs well enough to do what is best. I appreciate every day I have with Tulie, and know that I may not be as lucky with others dogs in the future.
