I am not judging the way you raise your dogs; it sounds like they are happy and well-adjusted, and it works for all of you and your situations. I can't imagine you traveling, and letting them run around the hotel room, and them not wanting to go in the crate b/c see it as a punishment. They see it as their safe place. We used to say something like that to our Springer. We would say, Where do you go?, and he would just walk into his crate.  Each way works for each family. Man, how did this get into a talk about how to raise our dogs? LOL |
If I had one pet yorkie it would probably be different. But, raising show dogs is much different. You're raising them to Champion and improve the breed when you breed them. It's just a different way of life, my whole life revolves around my dogs. They love traveling, even after they've been championed, and I'm showing another, they hear me loading up the equipment and they get excited, thinking they're gonna go. I do take turns taking one of them, especially if I'm only showing one dog.
