Is it unnecessary if the crate is in a quiet room at bed time?
13 the number itself is a lucky number in norse mythology and when Europe got christianized they tried to wipe out their religionTo do so they needed to show that paganism is wrong and join Christianity Thence came the Friday 13 superstitionthough it is freyja's number and dayFreyja is leader of valkyriesI do not know where 666 came from though.
They are many theories of what 666 stands for.
The dog crates we now only use at night, have always had top and sides covered It makes a snug den which I do believe dogs prefer The door is uncovered - and we use old sheets so there is plenty of chance for air circulation Obviously if the crate is one of the fiber-glass flight crates, you don't need to cover it at all - just with wire cratesActually the crate my Whippet uses has a door at the front, and one at the side So in her case with it against the wall, the other long side, against the wall, and the back is covered, with the two doors not covered My Basset's crate has the door on the front (the long side) because we bought it for the car originally, positioned behind the front seats so we needed the door on the long side, not the normal end His crate is covered back and both sides, but not the side with the door! I'd always cover the top, so the dog doesn't feel quite so 'exposed'.
