I just think once I hear her whine, whimper and bark - she's going to end up in bed at nights with me...  But, during the days, and for the very reasons you listed - it would be nice to know she's in it, but not crying the whole time she's alone. That kills me to think about. |
I picked up Lexi at 3.5 months, she was kennel trained, by 4.5 months I had her sleeping in the bed with me. For the most part she sleeps in the bed with me but will also sleep in the kennel without whinning.
Whinning gets to me too. We are trying to crate train our doberman right now, at over a year old she has a little fit everynight. Thank goodness for earplugs. She'll cry for about 1/2 tops.
