Mine are crated....They are only home alone maybe 4-5 hours at the most during the day...Barney does fine loose in the house....Belle is still a little young....That is one reason for crating....The second is that between hubby and me- We have 6 kids...And we never know when someone is coming over...So if we are not here, I prefer them crated so there are no accidental escapes....
