Here I thought I'd share the crate repair I did last minute yesterday so I could leave the house for a handful of hours, hopefully without Oji further chewing off bits of this crate.
This is the crate we bought at a WalMart on the way to pick up our puppy – not Oji, rather his predecessor Dax.
Oji should count himself lucky. I was first going to bold on wood pieces, then realized sheet metal would be better. Then I saw, and remembered these perforated pieces, so he'll have the ventilation and ability to see out.
My fastener collection came through for me, barely, again! Woo and Hoo!

It's great to have some scrap metal in my stash of stuff. I picked up these perforated metal plates at the job I held about 20 years ago!
I will go back and trim off the excess of the metal and of the screws. (knowing me, probably by next Christmas)

Yeah, a variety of fasteners here

You can see what he had removed from the crate. I actually trimmed the pieces off, as they were prime chew toys just sticking around in there.

Oji says "Yes, it's my den of iniquity."
