Buy three small crates, one for each. Give them a towel or a blanket in each. Give them treats and special toys for being in their "bedrooms". Our border collie runs into his crate when we say, "Go to bed, Rudy". He loves his room. It gives the dog privacy. Try not to use it as punishment but get them to enjoy it and run in whenever you ask. Leave it open at first. Then close for longer and longer, bit by bit.

You should buy 3 separate crates because a crate is supposed to be a safe place for one dog only

Use separate crates.

Separate crates for each dog. The crate should be just big enough for the dog to lie down.

One should never crate dogs together; if they get into an argument, the loser can’t escape and might be very badly hurt. If they are crated separately they will all be safe.

Thy all need their own crate but the crates can be lined up next to eachother

Each needs his own crate – I have 6 dogs, they each have their own crate but I line the crates up next to each other and put a light sheet over them all so that they can see each other, but still be covered.
