OMFG HES DRIVING ME UP THE WALL! okay so this is the 1st night i get my puppy. so everythings good until we put him in the kennel. he whines and cries and cries and cries. he'll wine for 30 mins then stop then wakes up in 2 hours and whines again. i can't get my sleep and idk how i'm gonna manage for school. i've made it as comfortable as possible with a blanket stuffed animal and a ticking clock near him and music to try to mimic my voice. NOTHING WORKS! he just wont let it down plz help!
but i have 2 HUGE projects coming up and how am i suppose to manage the crying at night and get enuff sleep without getting cranky T.T
 
you can just put it to sleep with you then once you are done w/ ur proj then thats when you can start training it,thats what i would do but you do have to be pattient
 
When i got my puppy the first night i slept out in the lounge room and she was on her bed next to the couch to me. She didn't wake up once. Even when my dad was going to work at 5:30. But every now and then she would jump up and go under the blanket. But when she was asleep you could just put her back in her bed.

They just need the security of you being there to protect them. Puppies are babies so they scare easy.

If that doesn't work. Then it should stop soon when they get used to the environment
 
put him somewhere where no one can hear him. Or keep him in your room for the first night ONLY.

Your puppy might need a potty break and so it's not it's fault but if it keeps whining afterwards, then yea just move the crate somewhere where you can't hear it or listen to some nice music and ignore the crying
 
A new young puppy is scared and misses his litter mates and mother, the whining is normal and may last for several more days. And pups need to go out every couple of hours through the night. Get used to through the night potty breaks, that's what a young pup does. You have to be patient, didn't you know all this before you got a pup?
 
be persistent. when i got my puppy she did the same thing. and as hard as it is you jus thave to ignore them and finally they get the message. it does take a few weeks though and a few weeks of not much sleep, lol. just hang in there, it will be worth it in the end.
 
Your puppy is distressing you, how do you think that he feels. Please ignore the people who say that your puppy should be left to cry. He is missing his mother and his litter mates. Beware if he is left to cry he WILL develop "separation anxiety" which will plague him and you for the rest of his life. I have had sixteen dogs and when they were puppies they did not cry and none of them ever developed "seperation anxiety".This is a rehearsal for your puppy settling down at night. You will be able to do it for a couple of hours after school and both you and your puppy will have a peaceful night. If you don't do this you will have weeks of sleepless nights.

The following will ensure that he does not suffer from separation anxiety and does not miss his mum and his litter mates. This is also vital if you want your dog to be clean and potty trained.
Put your dog in a separate room where he can rest undisturbed. then go out of this room and close the door. Open the door immediately and go into the room again, ignore your dog whilst pretending to clean the counter tops or pretend to do something else for a very short time. Go out of the room and immediately go back in again, keep doing this and gradually increase the amount of time which you stay on the other side of the door.
Timing is vital and you must get back into the room BEFORE YOUR PUPPY CRIES. Eventually your puppy will go to sleep and will be convinced that you are just on the other side of the door. When you know that he is asleep stop going into the room, however you MUST LISTEN FOR HIM WAKING UP.

When you know that he is awake, go into the room lift him up and CARRY HIM into the garden for a pee and whilst he is doing this say “get one” and praise him profusely. Puppies need feeding about four times a day, although he may have a pee before his feed you should also take him out again afterwards. You must always take him out when it wakes up and after he has had food or drink. It’s also a good idea to let him explore your yard/garden afterwards and play with him. Before you go to bed, take him out again and when you wake up take him out immediately

It is vital that you continue with the door thing for the first few days. To ensure that you have a happy puppy, try to devote as much time to him as possible for the first two weeks. This will help with potty training, however he will not have any control for the first few months and he will pee during the night... To help him, use newspaper that you have rubbed in one of the pees that he has done outside and leave several layers of newspaper on the floor. Hopefully he will toilet on the newspaper during the night. Or you could set the alarm and let him into the garden during the night.
You should also encourage visitors as this will help with his socialisation. Later when you able to take him out, walk around supermarkets where there are lots of people. Stand at the school gates and watch the children coming out and you MUST take him to puppy classes to get used to other dogs.


GOOD LUCK.
 
Music won't help - try a talk radio station.

Can you bring the crate into your room? If he's in your room, with you, he may not whine and cry as much. If you can't do that, put his crate in the bathroom and shut the door so that it won't be so loud for you.

He's lonely and kinda scared. He's in a brand new place with brand new people and there's nothing around him that is familar to him. He's just been separated from his mom and his sisters and brothers, and he misses them. He doesn't know what's happening, and he doesn't know what's going to happen to him. Take a bit of pity on him, and recognize that he's still a baby and kind of young to have to cope with all this stress.

If this is the first night you've had your puppy, relax. If you're firm about him staying in his crate all night, you can expect him to stop his whining after 3 days. And, if you leave him in there all night, he WILL urinate or defecate in there. And he'll also mess in there while you're in school if there's no one to take him outside to learn to be housebroken. If he does have to go in his crate, be sure to keep the crate extra clean so he doesn't get sick by living in his own feces and urine.

Good luck!
