funny --- We have two bowls down...Gracie will eat from "hers" (though she always shares with whoever sticks their nose in the dish with her) --- she finishes it off...the exact same bowl (different color) right beside hers with the same food in it...and if she wants more she barks at me until I put food in "her" bowl. So I take some kibble out of the other bowl and put it in hers...to which she then eats. Yeah, she's a brat!
Free roam: My adult Yorkies have free roam of one level of our house where we spend our time (living room, kitchen, and one of the two bedrooms on that level).
The pups (one 4 months old and other 6 months old) have the run of the living room and kitchen.
The adults sleep in crates in our bedroom at night, the pups sleep in an x-pen together in the living room (though the pups were using crates in the bedroom before (long, unimportant story as to why the sleep in the x-pen now)
As long as you check on your pup frequently and make sure he's not up to something that could harm him he should be okay. The carpet will shampoo so relax there.
