We have a carrier, a large one but our dog is a smaller breed. A full blooded rat terrier (rescue dog). He is 1yr and still in the cage at night.

At our old house he slept in it in a corner of the kitchen and here he sleeps in the garage. He gets very excited and runs to the door when it is time for bed, it is so funny!

When we leave he is out, this is very much a dog neighborhood and everybody around us has animals so he likes to stay out w/ his buds.

His carrier was a yard sale one that my mom got so I don't remember pricing but very cheap. He eats discount foofy dog brands from the pet store because he had a hair problem and his hair fell out on regular food. He eats one specially for hair.

We drape a blanket over the carrier and have one inside (that I need to wash it is disgusting now!). Sometimes when dds are out of town he steals a stuffed animal or shirt of theirs and sleeps with it, but doesn't chew on it like everything else. He is very attached (and protective, he ran off some weirdo who was lurking aroundat our old place staring at dds) to dds. I guess he feels better w/ their smell there when they aren't around!
