Day 3 with my new husky puppy (oh boy) but I was warned that the Worst part about crate training is having to hear your puppy crying, and it's not mentioned enough, they're still babies and will always cry and make a show, specially if your puppy isn't even close to his first 3 months. Patience is key and remember it will all be worth it when they grow up!

Huskies are den dogs and tend to adhere to the crate as a safe and relaxing place. Our Siberian, Koda, naturally took to his crate without a whimper. Hopefully, your husky pup will do the same…Good Luck and congrats!!! Huskies are awesome dogs and love to interact, talk, and blow their coats, of course.

the cover over the crate (in my home office) idea has been a big winner for my little black terror. puppy has even taken to the crate in my bedroom, so she now sleeps in there instead of on my bed (which wasn't yet an issue). pretty big thing for her to accept both crates, in general, but especially for when she is able to get up onto my bed on her own. can't have a curious puppy roaming free in my room while i'm passed out. there will come a day that i'll welcome this pup to sleep with me, but not until she's settled down. very glad that i found this vid!!

Omg, you’re a lifesaver!!! Our 3 month old puppy always whines and barks so INCREDIBLY loud when we’re not around!!

We have 2 month old adorable Siberian Husky who’s an absolute nightmare when is time for bed. This is day 3 and my husband and I have given in to the howling, crying, and whining when our pup was in his crate. We grew very frustrated. After watching this video we immediately got to work . It will still take some time for our pup to get use to the crate. He wasn’t happy but we put down some training pads, gave him his favorite chew toy, placed a sheet over the crate, and put on calming music. He squealed, cried and whined even louder but after a few minutes he grew quiet. We have a lot of work to do but so thankful for this video. We will keep watching your videos to learn more about how to properly train our puppy. This is a learning experience for us too.🐶❤️

I watched this video yesterday and my boys also going away on a school holiday in the afternoon, I thought this is perfect timing and I decided to let him cry out and sleep by himself in his room downstairs. I heard him screening and making so much more trouble for a couple of hours but finally, he gave up!! 😅🤣 When I woke up this morning at 6 o'clock he is still sleeping in his bed no drama.

After familiarizing our Belgian Malinois pup with his crate, he would yelp for between 7 and 30 minutes when put there for his bedtime at night. Now, we still woke up twice a night to take him outside to use the "bathroom". But, he still would yelp when put inside. We finally put the crate in my home office, which happens to be sound-proofed (makes it easier to hold Zoom meetings for work). After that, it was not a problem. He would yelp and we did not come over to "rescue" him. After a while, he got used to it and he no longer yelps when inside the crate. Of course, we make sure he is well fed, hydrated, and exercised by 7pm. After this, it is time for him to unwind and get ready for bed.

[@123aldoaldo]

Just admit it your up at night because your pups crying so just like me you came to KZbin lol Update after a week. I have him in his kennel at night and cover his kennel up just enough so there’s still some fresh air ventilation inside. He’s 10 week old German Shepard. He has now used to his kernel and the whining and crying has stopped. !!

[@amypeterson9980]

So good to hear this!

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

Thank you for the update! We are glad to hear that your pup has settled. Good job on covering the crate and leaving the ends open for ventilation.

[@kristinc3912]

I wish I had started watching these videos BEFORE bringing my pup home! I thought I knew about crate training, but not enough LOL. I have been rewarding bad behavior (putting treats in to calm him down) and also "visiting" to see why he is barking... Luckily it has only been 5 days since he has come home and I have time to retrain.

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

You still have time!

[@AStar-696]

@Kristin C....before there are actually videos out there telling dog parents to put treats in there to entice them to go in...we have to decide which is the best advice and roll with it

[@user-pp5ny2us7i]

@@AStar-696 I don’t think that is conflicting advice though. It is still helpful to use treats to train them on the command to go in the crate and to build on making it a positive space as this video says to do. The key is to avoid giving treats while they are exhibiting the bad behavior that you do not want to reinforce like whining and barking.

[@tamiramos5873]

My puppy cried it out on her first night with us for about 15-20 minutes. Surprisingly, it didn't bother me when trying to sleep. She then was quiet till around 4am and cried for about 5-10 minutes. And then was quiet till around 6am. This is when I normally get up so I waited for stop cringe and I let her out and we went outside immediately. There have been a few accidents but I think she is getting it. That first morning out though...I had her outside for 30 minutes - why she didn't go is beyond me because within 2 minutes returning into the house, she went poo. Her second night in the crate was almost no crying at all. She slept through the night and I was beginning to think something was wrong - but she was fine. We just started putting her into the crate more often yesterday (her her 3rd day with us). We would put her into the crate after play and after bathroom breaks. We also only allow her to eat when we eat. I hope all this will bring an eventual resolution to potty training. For my previous German Shepherd, I don't remember much. When she was about 2.5 years old, both my husband and I had to go out of the country on separate deployments. I got back first and then my husband. I believe she developed separation anxiety because of this just looking at her face each time we would leave the house after that. Well, I tried crating her again when I got back and she managed to get out of 3 different crates. I didn't want her to hurt herself so the crate idea became history at that point. Good luck to all who are going through this with a beautiful new puppy.

I have an 8 week old mini goldendoodle pup that I got 2 days ago. Thankfully her breeder already had her and her siblings partially crate trained and on a schedule which has helped tremendously bringing her home. I cover her crate when I put her down for naps or for the night and have Alexa play ocean sounds for her and she does so well with no whining unless she needs to potty. I’m learning a lot with YT videos and her teaching me patience as well lol. I am definitely going to get a snuggle pup for her, I didn’t know those existed! She’s used to doubling up with a sibling at night, so that will be a huge comfort as opposed to her lamb chop stuffie

It's great that your breeder started on that training. That makes it so much easier on the new puppy parent!

[@knighttoking7926]

My 9 week old fur baby is too small to sleep in my bed, and always will be, so she sleeps in a nice, raised, plush kennel crate, right next to my bed. I raised babies so that skill transfered over to my fur baby. I'm surprised to learn that. She sleeps all night after only 10 days. No fussing. She gets her playtime, food, water, potty time, and loves before she goes in. In the day, I put her in for short periods of stay so I could do chores for a few minutes and return before she got upset, gradually I left her for longer periods. She has quickly learned that its a safe space and she won't be there forever.

[@HowToTrainADreamDog]

Great info! I will be letting puppy cry it out next time. Thanks for confirming I'm on the right track. I think dad's have more "immunity to puppy whimpering noises" Just like our two human children they know how to manipulate your feeling from an early age. The confidence and wisdom to know you've done the practical things and the puppy needs to learn how to behave is freeing. Thanks again 👍

[@MrsMommax6]

Our new pup whines for EVERYTHING, but crate training is the hardest. Night 1, she began whining and barking an hour after bed. I decided to take her out for a potty walk (new diet, better safe than sorry). And while she was super excited jumping around, I didn't give her attention beyond our commands "sit, outside, inside, bedtime". I repeated this again, 3 hours later. 2nd night she whined about 20 minutes from the start. But settled until about 4 hours later when she started whining and barking. I repeated the above, just took her out to potty and back to bed. During the day she is crated during dinner, and when I nap. Nap time seems hardest so far. But I'm happy to know I'm doing it right by ignoring her when I'm sure her needs have been met.

I'm doing all of this except the cover on the crate during the day. I understand the instruction. It's just that no one's at home during the day. I come home to let her out, have play time,... we have a very good, very firm schedule. During the week, it is quiet in the house. Crate's in the laundry room where there's no stimulation, one window, fairly dim. She's getting better about the crate, but she still wants to whimper - we ignore it. A puppy is hard work - I'm tired but suffering 'the blues'. I wasn't prepared for this.
