When I get Radish back from bonding...

With her new friend should I confine them to the dog crate & pen set up for a few days or is it ok to let them free range the living room like Radish normally does at weekends or evenings?

If I need to confine them to the dog crate and run how long will they need to be confined before I can let them free range as normal?

Just want to make sure I do things right.

I think I would keep them confined for a few days to settle so Radish isnt territorial - I would try and reduce the space to start with and increase it gradually each day - Im sure they will be fine but just to be on the safe side!
Is the bonding still going well??

Thanks for the info.

As far as I know the bonding is going ok and Radish has even done some happy flops

Keep them confined to the dog crate for at least 2 days, preferably a few longer as moving them will unsettle them a little. I would say increase the space by a few feet every few days
