Hi I guess it must be hard cause your older dog is so good and you dont want to lock him up too.


I have a two year old and a 16 week old.I have to leave the pup in the exercise pen and I leave the older one have the run of the house.I think a pup is not really safe to have the run of the house anyway so he is better off to be confined even if he does not like it.He will be safer anyway.He could start to chew wires etc.

Maybe just put the pup in the kitchen like suggested and block him with a pee pad and let your older dog have the larger area of the house as he is not doing anything wrong? Seems kinda unfair to make him do the same as the pup.That or put him in his crate with a little less room so he will not want to mess in it as he wont want to lay in it. I had to do this with my dogs for a while with their carrier beds they sleep in at night and it works.
