When I was cleaning/organizing my bedroom, there was too much stuff on the floor for Max and Abbie to be out and about in my (their) bedroom. So I used an exercise pen and closed off a section of the bedroom so they couldn't get into anything. Their crates, a big dog bed, and a big chair so that they could look out the window are all in the area. I put them in their area during the day when I was at work and at bedtime for a few weeks. When I allowed them out of the area for bedtime after a few weeks, they actually preferred to be in there rather than on my bed. The first few nights, the started off on my bed but ended up in their area. I miss sleeping with them, though
