2 in a crate? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I put two of mine in crates together. But I didn't do it until I kne they would get along together. I crate mine at night, but during the day when the crates are not in use, I stack them. Sometimes they will even jump into the upper crate during the day.

Mine have never set foot in a crate, but then i'm lucky not to have to leave them for more than 1-2 hours at a time. If I needed to use a crate for their safety then I would but as it is when I do go out they either have free roam or they go in their bedroom, which is dog/puppy proofed.

I only have one crate for both my girls and they both go in there and don't fight. I keep it open all the time though and when i am out i let them roam free in my bedroom and just make sure everything is safe and they can't chew anything.

I use crates when a puppy needs a short time out; recovering from surgery; needs privacy; when they are in heat or when transporting dogs. It is a good idea to train puppies to a crate. Crates are not for punishment; in fact some pups like to have their own crate to play in when they have special toys.
