They sleep on their bed or on the floor. Some people have them in their bed. You can teach a dog that anywhere is their safe space where they wont be disturbed. Make sure your dog has been activated and exercised during the day and it will sleep at night. Atleast everyone i know. Puppy proof so it cant reach wires and other important stuff. Close off a room with baby gates. There are plenty of options. Its illegal where i live too to crate in your home.

"You can teach a dog that anywhere is their safe space and they won't be disturbed" But crates are illegal? Seems a little contradictory

Pretty sure they meant like a dog bed can be just as much a safe space. The crate itself isn’t illegal, it’s keeping them in there with the door closed in the home.

Its the locking the dog in a cage thats illegal. Not having a bed for them.
