thanks for the help guys... i know i felt a little off about the crate being a jail as well but i read a lot about how its their den and what not that eased my mind a little... however I should have read up on it before we put her in there last night lol.. i dont think we introduced it right by slowly letting her explore it we just put her in there with a treat when it was bedtime and she cried for quite awhile.. and then this morning when i heard her wake up i took her out and let her eat took her out again.. and then put her back in her crate so i could go back to bed it was really early.. and wow she HATED that. So should i wait and not take her when i hear her wake up and just take her when i normally wake up? she had had one lil pee in the crate. I just feel like it is harder to take her during the night and then have to put her back in again and let her cry again? Should i just keep letting her have the accidents until she is old enough to hold it through the whole night? |
