I have a 6y 10 mo old spayed female TM named Djouli, 90 pounds, and a 10 month old intact male TM Reilly, 100 pounds. He didn't fit into the XL Vari-Kennel so I bought a Giant Vari-Kennel. I have been slowly working on them getting used to being in there, and they will now sleep in there on and off, as well as following commands to go in and lay down to get their treats. Neither one likes being locked in but we're working on that one. I also have two 54" Midwest iCrate wire crates that I keep outside in the dog run (I did add a tarp over those for shade & rain cover).
How exclusive should I make each crate? Djouli has taken to laying down in Reilly's crate, but since he doesn't fit in hers, I have been trying to shoo her out. Am I on a fools errand there, should I just let them figure it out, or can I convince each on which crates are theirs?
