Yeah I figured as much. My wife who is not a big fan of using the dog is very careless and will just set it on the couch or lay it on her lap. Always seem when it stops working is when it's in her hands. It's been very frustrating almost to the point of putting my dog up for retirement.

They also make that in a round or square. The bottom of my underdog is about 1 5/8th inch so it will fit in this smaller rectangular "pen" and I can get some bottles/jars (I bet I already have some, my idea of "recycling" glass is to use it until it cracks or something then putting it in the recycle bin so I typically have plenty of nice glass containers WITH LIDS just from buying stuff at the grocery) to fit behind it to stand up my stems and picks and what not. Or you can get the larger ones that are about 4.5" square/round, then you can fit your dog and say a couple small half-pint mason jars to stand up your accoutrements and keep them all penned up in the same place.
My dog pen will actually arrive tomorrow but I have high hopes for it. I am ALWAYS accidentally pulling the dog off the table or knocking it off, or the cord gets all doo-wonkers. This has nice spaces in the scrollwork or at the front where you can let the cable drape while the dog itself stays stable and preferably upright in the pen. And if it DOES fall over in the pen, its not going to light the metal holder on fire LOL!
They are aluminum, not bronze. They're just bronze colored.
