there are so many threads out there i dont even know where to start. i am starting to kennel train bam bam today. i didnt want to do it as I kinda think it is cruel and i want to be able to play with my baby. it is a last resort. i was using the playpen before but he would get so mad he would cry the whole time like he was dying, tear up the entire pen, blankets in the food and water peeing on the blanket (the blanket was a tiny tiny spot in the pen too).. tearing up the potty pads..chewing them, he was out of control. i think this is better because i can bring him around the house with me. he has not made a peep yet and has been in the kennel for an hour now sleeping. i want to know how long to keep him in there before I take him out to try and go potty... also, i got the smallest kennel available but i am afraid he will try to pee in there anyway as he is so little and has the room to avoid a pee spot... it is a very small kennel too.. any tips for this as this is my first time kennel training a dog. do I keep him in there the whole night? i will put it on my bed. i did the take to the pad every hour thing with pebbles and she was excellent so im having a hard time dealing with bam bam. he is stubborn lol..
