Do your dogs sleep in crates at night??

[lv4dogs]

Nanook & Raustyk have never even seen a crate until I got Kaige. lol

And Kaige hasn't slept in a crate since last Wed. He can hold it all night & hasn't chewed anything either. His crate is open though and sometimes he'll wander in there by himself and go to sleep.

None of mine have had to be crated at night, since they were puppies being housebroken.

I do however still have Gull's Crate up for barking time outs. If I'm on the phone or watching TV and he won't stop barking after I give him a warning, then I tell him to go get in his bed. Then he gets a short time out, just long enough for him to chill out.

This is getting rarer, but he seems to love sleeping in it, so I keep it up, even though it's a hassle to clean around. I gotta get a video of him opening the door to go in it, when I tell him to go get in his bed. It's a wee bit funny.
