jpayne · 04-22-2011, 06:42 AM

I am a proud owner of two toy yorkies (Holly, 9 and Sophie, 5). I crate them during the day and sleep with them at night. But, it's coming to a point where I realizing that I do not actually sleep at night since they are up, walking around me. I'm wondering if I should start crating them at night. My gut tells me yes, but my guilt makes me keep allowing them to sleep with me.

I work from 8-5 and get home around 545. They are crated during this time. I'm wondering, is this a lot of crating for these little angels? I was thinking that maybe I should be put them in my guest bathroom during the day so they would have more space, but I worry about them making a mess (pottying). Any thoughts??? Please help.
