If it is nerves and not illness, then try leaving for a few minutes and return. Repeat many times, gradually increasing your time away. Don't make a big deal when you leave or return -- be as matter of fact as possible. Leave the television or radio on, give her toys or something safe to keep her occupied.
Leave a shirt that you have worn or something with your scent in your baby's crate. I also read another suggestion from a breeder/exhibitor on another thread to drape a little blanket over the crate. We drape a towel over the top for my younger boy who sleeps in his wire crate. |
There was was firm piece in there so my fiance thinks she smeared it (sorry gross!). We are trying to build a schedule for her. We will try to leave for a few minutes and the towel. We had a toy in there with her..but of course that is in the wash now with her crate pads! We will try all of your suggestions! Thank you!!
