[rabbit322]

brought a new puppy home today, 8 weeks old, i already have an 8month old pup. they have been playing all day i put new one in his cage for a sleep and the older one left him too it, just need to know when i go to bed should i shut new one in his cage or leave him with the other one, i['m thinking shut him in cos they haven't stopped playing all day.........help lol

where does the 8 month old normally sleep?? put him/her where he'she normally sleeps and put the puppy in the crate next to the 8 month old.

If they have been getting on well all day, I would think they'd be OK to be left together, as long as there's enough room in the cage for both of them. It will be a comfort to the younger one to have another pup to cuddle up with :huggles:

older puppy sleeps in an open cage in the kitchen, but he hasn't left the new one alone for 5 mins today he wants to play and play and play lol, i'm thinking the younger one will actually get some sleep if i shut him in his cage.......

keep them seperate until the wee one is strong enough to defend its self in case a row would happen and the wee one get hurt

being in a crate will teach new puppy to be clean at night, my three can all accept being on their own at night cos i crated until they used to it and were quiet at night then let them together -no seperation anxiety here
