I crate trained my Lola when she was a baby, and honestly. She never cried once at night. I'd lay down by the crate at bed time till she fell asleep, then get up quietly and go to my bed in another room. She'd sleep through the night every night. She'd be glued to me during the day, but I would put her in her crate for her afternoon nap too. She's very independent now as a grown up pup, and she sleeps in bed with me. But if I need to be somewhere unexpectedly Lola can sleep and do her business just fine because I taught her early on to be an independent little one.
