I’m watching this at 3 something in the morning on day one of the puppy being with us 😭
😂😂😂
Yup. I slept on the floor next to the crate and had to let her just stay in a play area. But night two was exponentially better, and it helped me focus on what I was going to start training right away!
I feel your pain 😂
Day 6 for me. Puppy's still screaming!😭
I'm on night #1 with an 8 week old English Golden. We got a late start today on crate training. Zeke's Snuggle Puppy is in the crate where he left him after a one sided fight. Zeke is now sleeping at my feet. It's going to be a long night. We'll get an early start tomorrow.
Who else watching this at 4 am cuz they’re puppy won’t stop barking and crying
may be you would cry if suddenly took from the security of your mother and siblings
Yeah I’m tired of waking up at 6am because he decided to throw a concert. We left him for seemingly forever, waiting for him to get tired of whining so we can go feed him and not reinforce the behavior. No, puppy had food, and just wanted to prevent good sleep. The 5th time this week. I. Need. Sleep.
Am going through the same 😂😂
Meeee
Me
When my puppy started to cry I looked at my noise canceling AirPods and said,"I love you."
me watching this with the noise cancellation feature on while my puppy cries 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
lol
my puppy SCREAMS so loud i think she awakes the whole neighbor hood
Quackity pfp, now thats pog
Must be a husky them things are DRAMATIC!
@@jasminepritchard376 No it’s a boxer mixed with a lab 😭✋ she’s always dramatic
I have no hair left. Night 2
Im going through this now with my black russian 13 weeks. .
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!
We're wishing you lots of luck with your puppy, Sharpy! Make sure you check out the free digital New Puppy Starter Kit for even more help with your puppy at this time. Here's the link: howtotrainadreamdog.com
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.
Bro this mf, howling the whole night
@@Proudpapa50 i have one too. Just got her a few days ago and i would also say she is getting used to her crate much easier than the pitbull. Hopefully she continues 😂.
Currently day 4 and made the mistake of returning to his crate when barking, put him in with food as said and it’s slowly doing the trick!
Thank you for the Tips. I find out what I have missing. Bedtime schedule: 1. tired the puppy out, 2. potty 3. no stimulation, dark 4. if the puppy is crying, no rewarding, let her cry out. 5. put on music
U got it beautiful
Hmm so it's like the olden days with babies - you let them cry out... No way that's healthy. Simply have the puppy with you in bed or next to you and very slowly introduce the crate. 🐕🤗
My 9 week old ShihTzu puppy cried pathetically for a half hour the first 2 nights in the crate last week. After that we decided to provide lots of physical activity for her before bedtime, and we put a large bath towel over the top of the crate. Now she doesn't cry or whine at all in the crate. She goes right to sleep for about 9 hours overnight.
Half hour. Damn your blessed 🤣
Mine literally cried for two hours straight 😭
@@jadahoward5946 is yours still crying? ☹️
What about pee?
i have a 9 week old german Sheppard. Only had him a week mow. he cried for about an hour for 2 nights. after watching a few videos I covered the crate, dimmed the lights and made sure to tire him out beforehand and he only wines for 5 mins before going to bed. consistency is key so they know that complaining won't get them their way.
I realized what I’ve been doing wrong and I’m excited to finally get my puppy to stop crying 😭
Thanks for watching! We have recently updated this video with some new and more recent suggestions based on canine science and research. Please check it out here! kzhead.info/sun/ppSrXalriWWOh2w/bejne.html
I thought I was doing everything wrong by letting my pup just cry even after she’s exercised and relieved but this is good to know. I have noticed her crying time has decreased
Thanks for watching our video! We hope all is going well with training.
currently listening to this while my puppy is crying. my heart is breaking man I hope it works :(
Same..
@@bojana195 same :(
me too!!
How is it going ?
SAME
Thanks so much for sharing this vid, SO useful!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I just let my puppy Sleep with me she litte and she way scared
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!!
4 month old puppy (new to us) wouldn’t stop whining (first time in crate). Did this and we’re IMMEDIATELY grateful! THANK YOU!!! Puppy calming sounds on YT, wide cardboard piece for crate top & old brown sheet. LIFE SAVER!
We are so glad it helped! We have recently updated this video with even more suggestions. Please check it out here: kzhead.info/sun/ppSrXalriWWOh2w/bejne.html
getting a third dog in 2 weeks and still learning. this will be our 4th Shih-Poo. We now will have 3 ShiPoos one, 4, one 2 and one 8 weeks. Always love watching these videos!
Great advice! Thank you for posting these guides. Totally changed the dynamics for our puppy. He now relaxes in his crate, and went from hourly crying to once last night for a poo and wee. Literally saved our sanity!!
Sooo glad I found this on time. Very helpful thanks!!!
It's so reassuring seeing comments with everyone else experiencing the same thing. My girlfriend and I were at our wits end because we were worried that leaving our 3 month old border collie to cry it out would cause anxiety - but we've just watched this video and started his crate training in the early afternoon. Expecting a noisy night tonight but hopefully this pays off! (We're also going to buy some ear plugs, chocolates and write a note for our neighbours :p)
So glad this video was helpful! We would also recommend this new one that we just released on getting your puppy to love their crate: kzhead.info/sun/p7enpLCSjKqsl4E/bejne.html
OMG, I'm glad I watched this video! I just got my puppy Friday and the first two nights, she would sleep, but wake up and then pee. I put her in the crate last night and besides needing to pee and poo, she slept for three hours. Which is good start for me. Tonight I'll definitely make sure she tires out and goes to the bathroom before she goes in the crate to sleep.
A puppy's cry can be annoying sometimes especially when they're inside the crate. So this video content just taught everyone how to solve the problem. :)
Annoying? I feel empathy 🙏
This video saved us!!! We were so frustrated with our girl and her crate training. Your video was fantastic for showing what to do, and especially what NOT to do. Our family thanks you!!! 😊 Jimmy, Carmen and our Mollie girl. 🐶
Glad it helped!
Thanks for your help!!! My dog is now in the crate in the room next to my room. We got him 3 weeks ago and on the first day he was barking sooo much but then ignored it and now I still ignore it and it has gotten better! He doesn’t bark that much anymore at night!!! He is getting used to the crate by himself because he needs to learn to be by himself. When he’s older he will be in my room with a dog bed.
This is super great advice people need to have before buying a puppy
Prayers sent to this dog
Thank you so much for your knowledge. I haven't had a pup in 10 years and you are helping me plan and be much less anxious.
❤️
My grandma just sang to her guard dog when he was a puppy it was so cute to just watch because he would slowly start to close his eyes and snore and after about four minutes. one time he had hiccups and he was dreaming nothing cuter than a white ball of fluff with a mocha mask and black eye liner ( Great Pyrenees) on his back kicking the air with soft yips
Covering the crate with a towels/blanket really helped and the rest of the tips really helped!!! Thanks so much!
Glad it helped!
@@HowToTrainADreamDog When covering the crate with towels/blanket, should the crate door be closed or opened? Thanks
@@toshrodriguez1991 closed. It's after you put them in it..
Thank you for this video! I am glad people like you make these instructions clear for crate training. I've seen far too many dogs with terrible separation anxiety because they were always attached to the owner's hip at home and at night, and crate training is really just the best way to help them settle, gain independence and confidence, and provide them a safe place when they are unsure of something/someone new in the home. Your videos have helped me prepare for my dog to come home for the last few months :)
I tried all these methods but my dog absolutely loses their mind. They don't just cry and whine, they absolutely loses their mind and scream and bite the cage and throw their body against the wall.
@@JF-ub5lq Any updates?
@@truegrizzlesfan2292 she's a crate trained dog now lol. But we had a foldable pen for a few months attached to her crate so she could leave the crate and just be in the locked up pen area still. She stopped being so scared of the crate and started sleeping in it after we weren't forcing her into it. The pen attached to the front of the crate and the door "opened" into the pen if that makes sense. And she still had enough room in the pen to not feel like she was being locked up, and would walk into her crate to sleep. After a few months we removed the pen and it was just the crate and now she will go in it and just sleep and hangout or chew a toy until we come back home.
Yes. A free video at that! So wonderful.
@@JF-ub5lq I have a screamer, too. It sounds like I'm skinning her alive. We did a crate reset--switched to a wire crate from a plastic one, placed it where she was naturally going to feel like she's in the center of things, and are just loading value with meals, snacks, and chew-able items. Sometimes she chills in the crate, sometimes in front of it. I haven't shut the door yet because I'm worried about undoing all this value-building. Putting the pen around the crate might be just the ticket. But, she also was screaming in the pen, so I'm nervous. I don't want to create separation anxiety!
My friends thought putting my dog in a crate was cruel .. at first... NOW they see it is ESSENTIAL
How is it essential?
Thank you for the advice. I got my daughter a dog and this video really helped us a lot
Omg, you’re a lifesaver!!! Our 3 month old puppy always whines and barks so INCREDIBLY loud when we’re not around!! And instead of giving her time alone we always gave her treats and stuff.. now that I’ve watched your video her barking stopped for a few minutes but now she just started again as I’m writing this. I’ll make sure to follow your guide, tysm! This helped me out a lot, it really did.

I literally took your first step of advice while watching this video and covered her crate and she immediately stopped crying. New subscriber
I'm so happy to hear that it worked for you. I bet your pup was just a little overstimulated and putting the cover on really helped her settle down.
We brought our new puppy home tonight!!! 😃😄 I have been watching several of your videos and they help tremendously!! Thank you so much for your tips and tricks and calming energy.
How’s it going
Watching this on first night with puppy... Puppy is asleep in my arms on the couch. She wailed for 30 minutes in the crate. I cannot make this a habit but I cried I'm so happy to have her!
I bought a Shih Tzu puppy a few days ago and he cried alot a few nights. But now he is getting better and better, he only cries once or twice at night when he needs to go to pee. He is a wonderful pup If ur puppy cries at night, i hope it will get better!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
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.
Thank you for the tips. I liked it when you said to feed them in the crate. 🙏🏾
Up at 5 am with my pup, love it sm🥰💕
It's so hard to resist the whining and crying of my puppy
It isn’t hard for me, but I can’t let her keep crying because of our neighbors in our apartment complex. I’m at a loss of what to do.
Me too
It's super easy if you're stone hearted person like me
the mysterious Lucky ass 🍀
Ashley - We’re the same - brands new puppy in a close quarters apartment. It’s a big apartment, so the sound echos, and at 3am I can’t really ignore a crying puppy to frustrate all our neighbours :(
Thanks, this helps a lot to me. I just got my American bully puppy and never stops crying
I know this is for new puppy owners but it’s so much easier to train a puppy when you already have a trained dog. The older dog kind of mentors the puppy and I’ve found that training went so much faster.
Noise cancelling headphones are awesome for this. Throw on some music or a podcast and fall asleep to that.
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.🐶❤️

We just got a 10 week old boxer on NYE. Whew! The whining/crying in the crate at night has definitely been challenging🥺Some nights are good where she’ll sleep through the night, some days she won’t. Thankful for these videos because it’s been helpful. Patience is truly a virtue

@@HowToTrainADreamDog Hi. Yes, I have and I’ve also subscribed to your page. Thank you so much for the tips and videos. It’s helpful
I found that putting a blanket over the crate when its nightime works.
I call it "the magic blanket" 🙃
Yesss thats what I do & he knows its time to go to sleep & we wont hear a sound from him!!
My first puppy did just fine with the blanket over the cage but my new pup is a barker and won't stop even with the blanket and I don't know what to do.
We did that for our GS puppy and 2+ months later, it still works.
@@shefkiabdu-rahmanbafti1331 Thats so great!!!@
Man I ty so much yes my dog is 8 month old and never been in a crate. And I guess I'm doing everything wrong.... So glad to find u...
I’m getting a puppy next week! I have been watching all your videos this will be our second dog but this time it’s mine, ty for these videos they are saving my life 😂
how did it go?
mia messina it’s going good he was scared at first but now he’s very comfortable and playful
This is great information. Day 2 of puppy and a long night of crying in his crate. Very good tips here.
You got this!
Having a puppy is like a newborn!! Patience !! I’m a dog trainer and have had over 6 dogs and trained many
Yup. Really.. It's as if having a new-born.. Actually really now having thoughts to give him up.. As since the puppy is in our household, it had turned our family lifestyle upside down. 😢
Don't have a puppy unless you have the time and patience , it's just not fair on the dog , I've never used a cage, but I never had a problem. I knew what to expect ,hard work but worth very moment of it .
I love your videos, you don't talk down to your viewer's and give solid advice. I can't wait to bring my puppy home :3
We really appreciate this, thank you! Best of luck to you and your future puppy!
You are a lifesaver. I haven't slept in 2 days after rescuing a street puppy. I had done everything except backing the crate to the wall and exercise before bed. Got her an actual puppy bed instead of a blanket and backed the crate to the wall and bam. 60 seconds of hard whining, 5 minutes of quiet crying and she was out. Thank you!
We are so happy to hear your success story! Best of luck to you going forward!
Our other two dogs were easy to crate train, but my new puppy has been a challenge. From your video I've realized it's because I've been doing everything wrong this time. I've had my 8 week old puppy for a week and starting the first night I had it lie in the bed beside me just so I could get some rest. I've been getting more and more tired until I've felt like giving the puppy back to the breeder--something that is totally out of character for me. I hope he's crate trained soon so I can get some peace and rest. I've put the puppy in its crate in a different room and he's yapping a lot. I hope he settles down. (He just has as I'm writing this sentence!)
The puppy blues are a common feeling when first bringing home a new puppy. After all, you are now responsible for this creature who doesn’t speak your language!

This is very helpful. Excellent content. Thank you
I haven't used a crate before but now I know what to do in the future. Good stuff!! Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Unless you can be next to the crate 24/7. It is not ideal for them. When they are sleepy have them go in the crate.
I'm so glad I pretty much already did all of these steps from day one. I don't know how I knew but subconsciously I knew this was the right thing to do and so far everything is going great

Gonna give it a shot!! Wish me luck. EDIT: First full night of sleep in a week following these tips. It's the way we set up the crate as described in this video! Thank you. That said she woke up with the most puppy energy ever. Quite hard to manage her. 😕
You got this! Keep us updated on our Puppy Training with Michele Lennon Facebook group: howtotrainadreamdog.com/FB-group
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.
Rescued a Belgium Malanois recently and I've never had a pup cry for so long. I've always had a pittie home and this is my first "other breed" dog and boy does she cry.
Bro..can we connect somehow.. I want ask few queries..I'm fed up with my BM puppy
Saaaaame. We took in a 6 month old bm and we're doing all these things. She wasn't crate trained. She will literally bark ALL night long. We are on our 3rd week. I don't know what to do. I feel so defeated

Day 2 off having my 8 week old puppy and he has finally gone to sleep without crying. Last night was hell!!
Lol.
What did u do I have a 8 week old French bulldog and she’s crys
@@augustsmith5260 did yours ever stop crying ?
@@jessicalisrosa nope but we found out she only really cries when she either had to use it or is hungry
I wanna no the same thing
Meet all dog's needs prior to crating for the night (water, toileting etc), cover crate with blanket (allow for airflow, obviously) & place a Snuggle Pup toy with faux heartbeat activated (& heat pack if it's winter). Ignore cries/complaining at all costs, puppy will get the message before long.
You make amazing tutorials this has helped a lot
My beagle pup about 5 months not even was already crate trained when we got her, so she has never had any accidents. When she is tired she will let out a little cry then lay down, but when she has just woken up from a nap and we put her in there, she barks and cries for a few minutes. Overall she is pretty good, and slept in my bed only a few nights. No troubles at all, in fact she slept all the way to our specified time in mornings which was amazing. I am putting her back in her crate these next few nights as I don’t want her to only think of the crate as a punishment the few times a day(I think she is getting too comfortable with my bed). Later we will leave her crate door open and let her choose, but I really want her to be as comfortable as possible with her crate, and make sure she knows as a good place. Nice video 👍

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 👍
Thank you for your feedback! Remember to positively reinforce the behavior you want to see more of! Stay tuned.
Great tips 👍🏽
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the information you helped me
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!

We are so sorry, your comment got lost in a sea of comments! We hope that you still get lots of cuddle sessions in with your puppy!
Excellent. Puppy has been great in his crate at night. Terrible in the day (we're on day 5). I made sure all his needs were met, tried to ignore, he still scraped at door and barked, cried, on and on until I would cave in, wait for a pause and let him out into pen. Watched this vid today, covered his crate with a sheet and tucked him in crate. After 20 min of crying he is finally settling. I think the sheet did the trick, makes sense because we do the same for our babies and ourselves: dim the light. Terrific analogy to the crib BTW. You have a great channel, thanks!
We are happy the crate cover worked well for you! We have another great video specifically on puppy naptime that might help you! kzhead.info/sun/a6p-fL2woJluq3A/bejne.htmlsi=FCFSwSIpMA3RM8e4
I'm on my first week of training my rescue puppy and this helped a lot
Bro same
Omg my 8 week puppy wouldn’t stop SCREAMING in the crate until I put a sheet over her crate and she finally stopped!! THANK YOU!!❤️
I'm so glad!
@@HowToTrainADreamDog when I placed a sheet over the crate my 8 week puppy kept screaming and crying like crazy, and he’s biting so much. I just watched the video for the biting :) but please give me more advice for crate training
@@zoereyes7618 Try putting the shirt you wore that day in the crate
@@zoereyes7618 It might help
My only issue is the neighbors (I live in an apartment but not for long!) Stay strong, people! In the long run this is what’s best for EVERYONE!
Yea me too
Same here . It is annoying.hope he gets used to being on his own soon. Been on bed at night . Going to try crate in bedroom later, but I do not think it will stop him yapping.
This works ! Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for your feedback!
very informative ! thank you :)
I lay on a couch that he can’t see me on. I only do this because I have to wake up every 3 hours to let him out and it’s easier. He is 10 weeks old
"the best thing to do, is to let them cry" *my dog cries in a crate *my sister let my dog out of the crate my thoughts "you will regret this"
Everyone in my family does this, I showed them multiple videos/articles saying that its not good to reward bad behavior but they still do it.
Gonna be a challenge trying to get the hubby not to give in to our puppies cry lol
She cries all night every night
I start listening to them today and it works rn, but I hope my puppy don’t wake up in the middle of the night
Same here
Very informative. Much easier to manage pup with a crate. If you are thinking of getting a puppy, learn as much as you can. I made alot of mistakes
Ridiculously helpful, thank so much❤❤
We're so happy to have helped you. You're very welcome!
Thank you so much for the advice~ we became parents of a 7 month old puppy howler!, Lol! Thank you for your sweet teaching. While I do respond to a 2am whimpering for potty break....Straight back to the crate and then the following day removing water from reach a few hours before bedtime⏳🍹🥇🚽💤
You are so welcome!
You're preventing your dog from hydrating because you don't want to get up in the middle of the night?? What the fuck is wrong with you
@@dubaibank They literally said they are removing water a few hours before bed time so they don't have to let the dog out to go to the bathroom. Signs of overhydration are: bloating, lethargy, vomitting, loss of coordination, restlessness, pale gums, drooling, dilated pupils and glazed eyes. Nothing about needing to use the bathroom once during the night!
Ok - did everything wrong the first two nights. Hoping to correct my mistakes now. Thanks for the great instructional videos!
Hey your comment was a 1 yr ago, how is it?
Thank you for ur video. It is very helpful. 👍
Great tips! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
This is my challenging right now. My shihtzu (1month and 3weeks) awake during mignight around 1am.. Thanks for the tips!!
Too young to go thru the night without peeing I would think.
Mine wakes me up at 4am to poop😭
Thank you so much. So helpful. Ive been sturggling to get my 8 week puppy into crate.
I just learned that my puppy should have a meal on occasion in his crate. He does very well sleeping in his crate all night with very little whining. I also learned from you to log potty times and take him out on a schedule. Thank you
We are so glad to help you! Thanks for watching!
I'm awake at 3am but its a normal hour for his late night/early morning routine potty outing. First puppy and I definitely wasn't about to be losing sleep (or a lot of it) so I did my research and found these videos. Extremely helpful tools. So far so good. Now...if only my brain would stop thinking I still hear puppy barking before he soothes himself back to sleep. 😆
