X-pens or iris pens are a great way to confine a baby without the pup being in an completely enclosed crate. There is enough room for their bed, food, water, pads, toys and roaming room.

Also at night when he's in the crate, is the crate in your bedroom or another part of the house. If his crate is kept by your bed at night, when he cries you can reach down so he can smell your hand and know that you are near.

If the crate is in another part of your home this causes his fear, he cannot see or smell you. This is a baby that has just left his mom and litter mates, 4 days is not enough time for this baby to adjust to loosing his mom, being with new human, new smells, noises, schedules.
