Depending on what you have planned for them when they are older you'll want them to be strongly bonded to you rather than each other. If you keep them together all of the time they can become more "dog focused" instead of people focus. I believe if you search around on the board there should be some other posts to help you. Ed also has a bunch of good articles dealing with raising puppies. Hope that helps.

I know alot of breeders won't even give up two littermates to the same owner because it can be such a challenge! I ABSOLUTELY would crate them separately for the reasons Jeff mentioned. As well as take them for separate walks, training sessions, car rides, etc. You read Ed's article about raising 2 puppies? http://leerburg.com/2dogs.htm Will give you some heads up for the future.
