if you thought about it what would you guess the reasons are?

theres a couple of reasons not to put 2 dogs to ground together

first and foremost imo is because the dog at the back will push the front dog into un nessecary punishment from the front while the eager beaver at the back bites the backend of the dog in frustration

the 2 dogs could turn and fight each other

and if the 2 dogs manage to squeez in together they are not going to be able to breath and if jammed together the 2 dogs will soon suffocate

 

different when you break through though as you are beside the dogs in the dig to prevent any of the above

because one dog pushes the other in to danger some people do double up but only in big earths if the fox giving them the run around and cannot bottle it up in stop end but i wouldnt now but have done years ago when first started out but learn off mistakes
