[QUOTE="donna723, post: 259430, member: 1883"] Mine take turns being crated, and both the little ones are crated while I'm at work. Then as soon as they get out, they go right on the leash and go straight outside to potty. Of course, marking is not a 'peeing' thing, it's a 'territorial' thing, even if they can only come up with a few drops. Going in to the crate should never be seen as a punishment. It's their own personal little safe spot, where they can keep their favorite 'stuff'. It's their 'room'. I got mine used to going in to the crate by giving them their breakfast in there before I go to work, so they don't mind going in. They each have two big thick fluffy folded bath towels instead of a mattress - they chew mattresses up, and they each have their own soft blanket in their crate. They crawl in their crates to nap sometimes and Katy prefers to sleep in her crate at night instead of with me like Ragan does. They are so territorial about their crates and so respectful of each others 'turf', they wouldn't dream of even sticking their nose into the other ones crate! [/QUOTE]
