Yes. We prefer your dogs 2 or more to go in together if they get on well at home. There are 3 different sized rooms from which you can choose to suit the needs of your dogs. At meal times we can separate them so that they each get the correct amount of food. However, if your dogs fight to cause injury, we will move them to separate rooms for their safety. If this happens the rates may change for the use of an extra room.
