| caging boys together I have a 2 year old yorkie and an 8 month old. We used to keep Bruno (the 2 year old) in our kitchen while at work. Now though, with the both of them they are creating mischief. Does anyone know if it is ok to cage them together or better to cage them separate? Also - is it bad to put Bruno in a cage since he is already accustomed to being "free" in the kitchen? Any words of wisdom are greatly appreciated.

| Welcome to YT! I would think that crating them separately would be best, but if you're putting them in an xpen or behind a gated area, then they'd probably like to be together so they can have each other to play/snuggle with during the day. My two were penned together at first when Milli was a puppy, then when Emma grew up, we let her have the run of our bedroom while Milil was confined to a smaller area. They could still see/touch noses through the pen though. Then, when Milli turned a year or so, and was reliably potty trained, they both get to stay out and have the run of our bedroom while we're gone. You'll have to decide based on how they interact when you're not home, how they're trained, and how large of an area you have to keep them in when you're away.

| suzy - thank you for the reply... from everything i have read it seems we should cage them separately.. right now they are locked in the bedroom while we are not home but the younger one is starting to rip up the rugs and he chews and i am nervous he will get into something dangerous.. i think i will go ahead nad get the two separate cages and see ow that works.. thanks again for the reply.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I put Roxie in her crate in the beginning and left the other 3 loose. She was fine. Now that she is 7 months old I leave her out with the others. So I would seperate them at first and see how it works.
