I always just brought the puppy in and put them down and just watched. I would definitely seperate them when being left alone. Growing up the adult dogs slept on their beds and the pup would sleep in the crate so they were kinda separated at night. We never had issues. I would make sure the puppy doesn't bite your other dog to much, puppy teeth hurt. My prescious Callie would just take what my pup would do to her so I had to occasionally have to tell him to stop. Still do sometimes but he is a year now and doesn't bite like he used to.
