Our Pyr is terrified of crates and hesitant to enter any
narrow passageway as well, so the claustrophobia diagnosis makes sense. We tried
putting her in the crate that came with her when we adopted her from the Humane
Society, but it caused her such stress that we got ride of it, the crate that
is.

Put her in a crate and she goes ballistic. She has
torn
the doors off two 700 (HUGE) vari kennels.
That's it! That's Ombre.
"Goes ballistic" describes it exactly. She used to do the same thing
when we tried to get a leash on her, but we're very very gradually overcoming
that. I never thought of claustrophobia in a dog.
