During the day, they sleep wherever they want. At night, Dakota always goes in his crate (I want to wean him off the crate and into the laundry room now, but he chews on the door no matter what bones and toys he has in there.) and if Ripley is behaving, he gets to sleep wherever he wants. If he's being a little brat, he will go in his crate or in the laundry room.
