how long did it take your puppy to finally stay quiet when it has to stay in it's crate/kennel/pen at night or when you are at work?

i know you are supposed to ignore them when they whine or bark but is there any other tricks i can do? one of my friend's suggested i cover the crate with a blanket and lightly bang it with a broomstick every time he whines. i just have to make sure he doesn't sense that i am in the room. is that something i should try?

i should also mention he has a lab.
