If you're still looking for questions for your website, I have one.

My pup is a year old now and still cries when I leave the house. He has no problem with his crate, I just say 'crate' and he goes in a lays down. I try to get him in 3-5 minutes before I'm leaving and I don't talk to him once he's in there. (someone suggested that to me, not to make a big deal about leaving) As soon as he hears the door lock, he waits a minute and then starts screaming. It sounds like he's been tortured. I've taped him a few times and he'll cry for up to 15 minutes before he lays down to sleep.

I tried, for one week, to grab my key and walk outside for a minute before coming back inside to get him use to me leaving. I spent hours and hours that week but he conitued crying every single time and then I got caught out in the semester starting and didn't keep up.

So now that I'm in a new apartment with a new roommate, I'll try anything to fix this.
