[usr] I used to have my dog in his crate when I left for work.  Lately I have been letting him out more and more in the house when I've been gone. [sys] That's good. How is it going? [usr] It's going well!  So far no accidents and he doesnt appear to have ruined anything. [qst] [None] [bhv] I'm in a positive mood, please congratulate me and praise me.
That's great news! It sounds like he is enjoying his new freedom, and was ready for it.
