Question by Janice B: Crate training German Shepherd puppy in home with adult German Shepherds?
Hi there, we have two adult German Shepherds and will be adding a German Shepherd puppy to the family. The older German Shepherds were both crate trained, but due to lack of space once they were about a year an a half we had to allow them free roam of the house (no problems)
We want to crate train the German Shepherd puppy, but three crates just does not work for us. How difficult will this be to crate train the German Shepherd puppy with the other two running free?

It should be fine. I crate trained my German Shepherds and added a German Shepherd puppy not long ago and crate trained him. He did just fine.

Question by John Charles: Crate training German Shepherd Puppy while having an adult trained German Shepherd not in crate?
Does anyone know if there are special tips for crate training a German Shepherd Puppy while already having an adult obedient German Shepherd that is not kept in a crate any longer? I’m about to get a German Shepherd Puppy who I plan on crate training, but I already have an extremely obedient German Shepherd who is left free rein of the house at all times. Will this make things harder?

Nope- My 6yearold Amstaff is completely housetrained- The yorkie I just got is not – It actually helps – Cause he’s learned to go to the door and bark to be let out from her.
