Puppy making decisions, someone help?

Just wanted to add that some dogs get easily agitated when they're in the crate and another dog isn't. Therefore, I have to agree with getting another crate. For the average Lab, you'll probably pay about $80-90 for a wire crate. It's pretty inexpensive considering you practically have all your supplies already

well i prolly wouldnt ever crate them together just because of size wise and they get easily aggitated by each other in the same room, let alone the same crate lol!
I get the plastic crates...which i prefer, since cainan is a little escape artist anyway lol!

No, no, I meant some dogs get agitated when they themselves are in a crate and the other dog is allowed to roam free. I forget which crates are more expensive, but plastic Vari-Kennels shouldn't be more than $80 or so dollars. It's an invaluable tool =)

i think i to am thinking so!
they are just so big and tacky that it'd be nice to not have 4 of them you know lol!
what age do you think it'd be okay for cainan or maybe even coco to be able to not have one?
Coco gets into stuff ALL the time, we use to let her out while we were gone but even with toys left out for her, she was going for the other stuff...such as cabinets...my comforter on my bed ect.
Cainan doesnt touch anything and doesnt even get on the furniture which is amazing!
coco is about 13 months old now and cainan will be a year at the end of May

A crate costs $80, a one time purchase for your dogs life.

Compare that to new baseboards, carpets, furniture, or the vet bills for an electrocuted puppy from chewing wires.

I'd rather spend $80
