He even cries when he goes in there during the day when he is alone, but if I stay with him, he is fine. It is not really a crate that he is in, it is a small half bath. When I do go out and he is in there he cries and as soon as I take him out, he jumps plays, and licks. He is eating and drinking well and going to the bathroom regularly. I bought him from a breeder and he was weened about 5 or 6 weeks, but he was in a laundry room with his brother and sister. That was why I thought the bathorom would be a good idea.

Hi Audry,
Sounds like your puppy is okay physically....I think the word screaming and crying kinda made me think there must be something wrong physically. However, my puppy hardly ever whines or crys...only if she got scratched from the cat or something of that nature. Mine likes to bark or jump up and down if she wants out.
I found a really good article about seperation anxiety, maybe this will help?
