I got my little yorkie recently, Oliver. He is SUCH a good dog, luckily he's already potty trained and does very, very well. He was crate trained also, as the first and second night he had absolutely no problems. He didn't cry and he barely wimpered. Unfortently, Sunday afternoon I went to my parents for a family dinner. We kept him on the porch while we ate (we were with him out there prior for a few hours). I think he was sad becuase we went inside (either that or he smelled the food) and he started scrathing the glass door so I immediatly jumped up and put him in his crate (I yeeled a bit too - not mean though). I know that was a huge mistake - now he freaks out when I put him in the crate. Last night he screamed (and boy I mean that). I eventually put him in the closet with a blanket over him and that seemed to stop him. But I know Oliver has a bit of anxiety over it now - this morning everytime I would walk to where he could no longer see me while in the create, he cried. I'm not sure how to get his trust back... I even have his toys, blankets, treats in there with him. I really want him to like his crate.... Any ideas?
