That’s my plan for tonight

[@carolynbelamide5881]

Took our 8wk puppy home a week ago. He wasn't willfully going into his crate, but would stay in if he was sleepy and I carried him in. However the evenings have been a different story! He would fall asleep, but if I even tried to leave the room he would wake up and cry, bark, whine and whatever else came out of his mouth. I'd take him to potty or lay next to the crate. Then sneak away again and he would cry again. Finally watched this video. Covered the entire crate except the side facing the wall. He whined a tiny bit, but has now been asleep for almost 2hours. Thank you for this video! I'm also doing the high value treat training!

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

This sounds like amazing progress! We are so proud of you for applying training and help your puppy relax. Nice job, Carolyn!

[@erickalmestar]

We have the exact same story. We have covered the crate since day one but, he whines a lot and wants to sleep on our lap through the night.

[@pvnecxne]

My pup is 9 months old and I just realized I’ve been doing it all wrong! Thanks so much for putting me on the right track.

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

It's not too late! We recommend starting with our Better Puppy Behavior Workshop to learn more about how your puppy’s brain works and how to adjust your training dial accordingly. howtotrainadreamdog.com/BPBWorkshop

[@mikej9470]

Ah, another puppy owner getting into the crate instead of the dog. Pretty common error.

[@paradisebirdie]

Guys, this video is magic! I had made the mistake of putting my puppy's crate in the bedroom with me for 10 days after he arrived. The only thing I managed to accomplish was to have him sit down quietly for me to open the door. I tried to put him in the living room twice and it was hell. Then I watched this video and did everything in it. Literally everything. And it worked like a charm. My pup goes into night for his naps and the night without any complaints and stays there for hours at a time without so much as a peep. He will only cry when he really has to go potty. So guys - DO. NOT. HALF. ASS. IT. Do it all, it works!

[@ladapeterkova125]

So you reccomend to out the crate in the living room right after we bring the puppy home? I just wonder how to to do all that. If the crate stays open during the night the first night etc. So many question :)

[@mikej9470]

10 days straight in a kennel is too long. Probably shouldn't keep it in the crate more than 8 to 10 hours straight at the most.

[@TimScottDT]

After watching this video, did you still leave your pup in your bedroom at night in the crate?

“Dogs like to pee on soft things.” *looks over to dog already peeing on my bed.* TOO. LATE.

[@mikej9470]

Yeah, sure, the dog peed on your bed.

[@InternetWAPx]

Tbh i don't think that statement is true. Cats, definitely yes. But dogs pee outside too where it isn't "soft" for me dogs have peed more on my floor, than anywhere else, they aren't affected by how soft the spot they pee on is.

He will be a big boy. I have seen other crate training videos but this one has been more informative and training in a loving way.

So glad you liked it! Yes, we suggest crate training in a positive way so the puppy associates it with good things. You have to go at the puppy's pace but you'll get there!

[@juliegrubbs8756]

My 11 week old golden retriever pup has been doing awesome and so glad I watched so many videos before bringing him home. I slept next to his crate the first night, then moved farther away to the couch. On day 3 I was in my bed and he farther away in his crate in the kitchen. Since then he's been doing great in the crate and napping there about 3 times per day. It's night time that has suddenly changed. He goes to bed and was sleeping well through the night...9:30 or 10:00pm til about 6:00am or later. All of a sudden, he's waking earlier, like 4:30 and 5:30am. Have tried to let him cry it out and settle but with a working hubby and school kids, that's been a bit difficult. I've resorted to taking him out to potty and lying with him on the couch for another hour of sleep for the both of us. I'm certain I'm breaking some rules here but not sure what else to do. Hate to complain as he's sleeping so good as it is. Thinking maybe I need to keep him up longer or play with him right before bed like you said. That's all I can think of. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

[@rufus5966]

I guess no one has really mastered how to train your dog to go to bed at night, when there's loud noises going on. Like cars racing, dogs in the neighborhood barking, sirens, thunder...... I could go on. I've always held them and reassured them by saying you're inside you're safe you're with me. And that works for about 90% of the things that go on. When they are in the crate and you are in bed and Loud Noises start going off...its hard not to go in and comfort them.

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

In this situation it's best to desensitize those noises outside of the time your puppy hears them. Then he/she won't rely on you for comfort at that time, but they'll simply be no big deal and your puppy can sleep through them. This video can help you with that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJiofIamorqimZY

Paula Rodriguez - Yes, I keep the crate near my bed where my hand can reach. Also I cover it with a dark sheet so he rests well, else he’ll just cry for attention :)

[@revelingrituals]

We are going to pick up our water like you suggested during the night. We kept it down because we didn’t ever want them to be thirsty but totally get what you said.

[@mikej9470]

Why does the pup drink your water and not from it's own bowl?

[@MrLimitless95]

Getting a puppy this weekend! Nervous and excited at the same time lol

[@mikej9470]

Just go out in the yard to pee so it doesn't happen when you get excited.

This video has helped me teach my dog to love his crate. Within the first two weeks of having my puppy he loves his crate. Every night he will walk in or be guided in happily. Thank you so much for this information!!!!! 2 month in I can put my puppy in there to decompress if he is to excited or just needs a nap.

[@cherylwilliams1917]

New to this site! The content is great. I feel like I need the training too. I'm going to try pulling up water by 7pm and see if Chewy, my 9 week old Australian Shepherd, can make it longer at night. He's already amazing at about 5-6 hours. That makes it so hard during the day when he pees so often. 😀

[@TheBser97]

We've had our Golden Retriever puppy for 3 days now... We purchased a Snuggle Puppy toy and turn it on at night and give it to her in her crate. She lays on top of it, and quiets down super fast. A few cries (less than 5 minutes worth). Maybe it's just her, or maybe the Snuggle Puppy works, but she loves that thing!

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

Aw! So glad she loves her Snuggle Puppy. You can also try covering the crate and using a white noise machine or calming music too! She sounds like she's getting the hang of crate training quick. Keep it up!

[@irishfoxgal]

New puppy here, this is second night since brought home, covered with music on the near by tv... sanity and sleep saver

A puppy that can type! What a time to be alive. Did they teach you to type using Oreos? I bet it was Oreos.

Hello, and thank you so much fo the useful information you gave, I think this video made it all to me, I had a chihuahua few days back he’s like 3 months old and I had a lot of crying for the first 2 nights, but it’s getting better now as he started to realize that he must be quiet while in crate at night. I still have to learn a lot more about crate training, and I think I have to change the crate to make one for sleeping and a different place for peeing lol! Thanks again!

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

Glad we could help! We'd love to support you in our facebook group page if you have any questions! Puppy Training with Michele Lennon: howtotrainadreamdog.com/FB-group

Hopefully once you train your chihuahua to crate up you will quit crying.

[@kaelab8244]

Thanks for the video! Was wondering if you could share some techniques and tips on how to get your new puppy to stay and wait before approaching their food bowl or anything else you may be trying to share with them? Thank you!

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

Great question. We actually have a Puppy Manners Mini-Course coming out next week with this game in it. It's going to teach your pup how to wait for their food dish to be set on the floor, instead of them jumping up at it or barking for it!! If you're on our email list, you'll get notified when it goes live. Here's the link in case your not on the list just yet: howtotrainadreamdog.com/letmein/

[@mikej9470]

Duct tape. Next question.

[@Noname24675]

Thanks for the tips. Brought my 8 wk old German Shepherd home today, he is a sweet teddy bear! He didn't whine but I put the blanket on to help him stay asleep. I wish I could cuddle him all night like I did when I Co-slept with my baby boy 😂

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

As a human we assume dogs need things like blankets, beds and pillows in their crate but this can actually be more of a harm than a comfort to them, especially before the teething stage. Dogs also run hotter than humans.

[@mikej9470]

You wont want to do this when it tries to nurse like your baby boy did.

Whoa I must be lucky, the first night we brought the pup home (cockapoo), I had to check on him because I was worried he wasn't breathing 😂 not a single sound. Has slept through the night in the crate ever since. 🙏

[@mikej9470]

Not crying because a cockapoo is a bird. Did the feathers not give you a clue?

Shut up. JUST SHUT UP! *sorry from a sleep deprived dog mom, whose pup won’t stop crying, ever.

You and 2 other KZbin channels are the only ones that deal with real life situations lol like many of us have to work or can't go out at night to let puppy out, or can't take a weeks vacation to stay home

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

It is definitely possible to work full time when you have a puppy, but the first few months might take some creative problem solving on your part! As you can see from the sample schedule in the New Puppy Starter Kit, puppies have a lot of needs! Puppies can hold their bladder approximately an hour per month of age, so you’ll have to arrange for someone to take him or her out for potty breaks. But puppies also have needs for human engagement, enrichment, mental and physical exercise and of course… cuddling! As they grow they can be left home alone (always in the crate) for increasing periods when you are away at work. But for the first few months - even up to a year - you’ll likely need some additional help from friends or family to meet all of their needs. We have a great video on puppy schedules, as well as what to expect during the first year of a puppy’s life. Those two will be great resources for you as you plan! If you’ll be working from home, we have a great one on that topic too! Puppy Schedules: kzbin.info/www/bejne/baW5e4aYmK19jNk What to Expect the First Year: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZrGYnx9greYipo
