My cage is in the corner of the living room. Should it be completely dark for the dog as the blanket completely covers the cage, or should there be some light still ? I plan on having and keeping it downstairs
But here is the question I have. I realize last night only night 2 and had a puppy before but each different. If she whines at first put in we ignore she cries sometimes for 5 mins. Then its fine – however, hour later whines – how do i know its pee and not attention – considering though i do take her out and she pees. Then another hour later same thing – then 2 hours – etc…. My point is how do you know which cry it is…..
My puppy show signs of wanting to potty in the house, but whenever I transition the puppy outdoors, he is easily distracted … smelling the grass (as if he’s hunting for a place to pee) but all he wants to do is dig up the grass and he forgets he had to pee. How do I keep him to stay on target?
This video is WONDERS! My 9 week puppy sleeps quietly all night now and awakens fresh each morning and then proceeds to cook my breakfast of eggs and bacon. Won’t be long before he will learn to make coffee. Good luck!!!!!
Do you recommend closing the door on the crate from day 1 forward or leaving it open until the puppy acclimates then gradually keeping it closed for longer periods of time. I've seen both methods.
Brought puppy home friday and it's monday I feel like we have been doing this for a month. 6 accidents and 4-5 hours of sleep. Still going to try the crating method- sticking to it. I was able to calm her down and she walked into crate. She cried a little and I just kept "shusing" her until she was out. She slept 6 hours in her crate 5.5 woke to pee / poop and went back in 40 min later and slept additional 2.5 hours.
I just adopted a one year old pup last night was horrible let’s see how tonight goes😔hopefully I hope im able to. Get him to sleep at nights in his crate
I am sure my neighbors hate me by now omg. He was doing so well going inside his cage during the day, but he slept A lot during the day as well , maybe that’s why he is up now. I feel so bad for my neighbors because I am about to put in my AirPods and knock out 😂😂

I’ve just come back to this video to tell everyone who finds it how amazing it is! Literally brought the puppy home last night and followed all the advice in this video. Today he is already sleeping in his crate without needing us around. Please follow everything she says I promise it’s absolutely worth it. We can get on with our day today, showers, cleaning, cooking etc. and we haven’t had to monitor him constantly. It’s so worth it! ❤
our first mini goldendoodle didn't whine or cry ever, but we just got another mini goldendoodle puppy and he cries non stop in his crate/play pen during the day and when its time for bed.
I definitely need some help… I have no idea what i’m doing, i’m gonna be honest. My puppy is 3 months old, and i’m trying to crate train him to make him sleep in there, but he has HORRIBLE separation anxiety and he hates being by himself, no matter if he’s even with a person he doesn’t know, he’d rather be with a stranger that has the possibility to kidnap him than to be alone.😭
I’m extremely stressed right now, because every time i try to sleep, i can hear him crying and yowling in his crate to be let out as if he would die in there or something. It’s extremely irritating and i have no clue on what to do. My mom kept recommending me to just ignore his screaming, but the more i ignore him, the louder he yells. And i have neighbors, so when he screams it quite literally sounds like he’s on the verge of death, and i dont want my neighbors to constantly hear him whining and yelling at night when everyone is trying to sleep… What do i do to fix this? 😭😭😭
I’m really trying not give up on him and I have been doing everything wrong when he cries I let him out I feel like I’m over babying him I can’t sleep in my bed because I been doing everything wrong so from here on out I will be doing everything right
Help ! I have a 8+ week Belgium Mal. Name is Badger. A boy.
Having a lot of issues with biting and biting the adult German Shepard. In our home. My partner works 12 hours shifts. I’m currently still a homemaker. So his schedule is too long to impact the puppies behavior unlike me still home and not back to work. Yet.
We made the mistake of not crating the dog for close to two weeks now. So I went out. Bought crate and of course I also made the second big mistake of coming back too many times to the puppy.
I have very few locations in our house to put the puppy and also have music going which was recommended. Besides the sheet aspect which I also did wrong.
I also made the mistake of leaving too much food out. Including the German Shepard’s food which Badger likes to steal if it’s not kept up.
The other idea I had was putting the puppy in its crate and let it cry it out on a 4-6 hours incremental schedule. That mimics a similar schedule to our household.
As I need to start somewhere. My partner is not on board with the puppy crying during the night due to their work hours and I’m expected to take advantage of the week work trip they are gone for to break him into crate training.
Any recommendations with these issues from experience or with this breed will help me.

How do I get the free puppy starter kit?
What do you do when your significant other doesn't feel the need to be consistent with this type of training and you do?
What are they suppose to sleep on if you don’t give them any bedding?
My cage is in the corner of the living room. Should it be completely dark for the dog as the blanket completely covers the cage, or should there be some light still ? I plan on having and keeping it downstairs
Good video. I like the way she's doing her promo bits too
This might be a daft question but should the crate be the only bed in the house?
How can you deny a puppy or any dog Water Ever ???? Especially before bed a dog or puppy needs water like you or me
What about people who work full time?
But here is the question I have. I realize last night only night 2 and had a puppy before but each different. If she whines at first put in we ignore she cries sometimes for 5 mins.

Great info but too much talking. It would be much more beneficial if you were demonstrating with a dog.
Glad to know I am not the only one….
She always falls out the bed😂😂

Ye! Puppy is 10 weeks had him 6 days and he is terrible in a crate and at night won’t sleep without me 😮

Do you only cover the crate at night or during the day too? TIA
I have a question about this and I’m wondering 💭 what is going to change 😮
I have a new puppy and I want him to be happy 🐶🐶🐶🦴🦴🦴🎾🎾🎾😃😃😃😊😊😊
this has to be the best video about crate training I have ever seen!
Do you put your puppy right back into their crate following night time potty trips outside or do they need some exercise before back to the crate?
I’m a new puppy mom, how do you get the whining to stop when they are in the crate?
Me
I use all these tips to help myself sleep at night
This worked in just ONE DAY!! Thank you so much

Ill be getting my first golden retriever puppy tomorrow 🙂 I'm so excited 😊
our first mini goldendoodle didn't whine or cry ever, but we just got another mini goldendoodle puppy and he cries non stop in his crate/play pen during the day and when its time for bed.
Anybody have success with this method?
Should I keep crate in the bedroom where she can see me or another room? Also do I let her out of the crate during the night to take her out to pee?
Tired him out
