I have 2 boys and they are both gated into my kitchen together. I do not yet trust them in the house alone... but they do well together. I could not imagine seperating them! Actually they dont want to be seperated, they walk side by side on leashes, they want to both be held by the same person, they look for each other when they roam too far and come right back together... its very cute! I couldn't seperate them!
