I do this with all of my puppies, and i have to say that as soon as they get covered the go to sleep. It helps me sneek in an extra hour of sleep in the morning. Since they dont see light (the sun) they think its still night! it works, try it. and if she is not crate trained, train her to do so...She will cry and cry, but you have to ignore it. She will learn after a while...Good luck!
