callie and our pet dog poppy both sleep in the living room at night with the
door closed. they both usually take themselves off to bed around 8 or 9. some
dogs love crates. our pet dog loves hers. she doesn't sleep in it any more but
she prefers to eat her food in it rather than out in the open. she probably
feels safer.
