Yes, in the right kennel. First Class fits two or three large dogs, and Economy suits several small or medium dogs. Each additional dog sharing a kennel is charged at the reduced rate on the 2026 rates. [Book a stay](https://happypawskennels.propetware.com/customerLogin)[Call 707-678-6600](tel:+17076786600) Three dogs from one home usually already share a couch, and many owners prefer that they stay together. ## Which class for which dogs First Class is about 48 square feet inside plus 72 outside, for extra large dogs, two or three large dogs, or a litter of Chihuahuas. Economy is about 16 inside plus 48 outside, for several small or medium dogs. Business Class, about 30 plus 60, suits a pair of large dogs or one who does not like to share. ## What it costs On the 2026 rates, First Class is $72 for the first dog and $61 for each additional dog sharing. Business Class is $59 and $50. Economy is $52 and $44. Three small dogs in Economy are $52 for the first plus 2 x $44 for the other two, each night. ## Dogs that live together Sharing works for dogs who already live together and get along. A dog who does not like to share is better in a kennel of its own, and the staff can help you decide. ## Use the finder The [kennel class finder](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/kennel-class-finder/) helps match dogs to a class. The [multi-dog page](https://happypawskennels.com/dog-boarding/multi-dog-boarding/) explains more, and [this answer](https://happypawskennels.com/questions/can-my-dogs-share-a-kennel/) covers two dogs. ## Booking Describe your three dogs by size on the request or call 707-678-6600.
