Unfortunately that doesn't help his everyday lonliness, and I'm afraid to do that during his transitioning period of getting used to being without them. If you think it will help, I'd be more than happy to take him over there.

I talked to his breeder about him today and she said he just has a needy personality. He always needed attention. But since she has college age children at home, they are home a lot during the day when she's not to rotate who gives the pups attention. My boy begged for attention a lot more...and got it.
Ahhh - he sounds like a real cutie - do you have some pictures to share?

Also, I am not found of crate training - but that's me. I had mine 'baby gated' in a spare room until they were old enough to have free run. I also got an x-pen for other places in the house. Maybe the down time in the crate is too small? I got the x-pen from Walmart (play yard plastic) it was $50 (if you do site to store - there's no shipping charge).
