We tried to put him in his x pen to get him used to it but he whined and barked! When will get used being in there alone when we at work? I don't want it to bug the neighbors

He has to learn that's where he's to stay..try turning a radio on for him..the one thing you don't want to do, is to take him out when he's whining, or he will learn real quickly, if I whine, I get out..

eventually he will. Just leave his toys, treats, blanket, etc with him

Like the other posters said, he'll get used to it. Just wait it out and don't give in to the whines or he will keep whining to get out.

Good luck!

Put a t shirt or something in that you have worn so he can smell you. My breeder gave us a blanket and a toy with the puppies litter mates smell on it. She never has has a problem getting through the night. I thought for sure the first night was gonna be tough. This worked very well and we all slept!

When I first got Murphy I put him in his x-pen and would leave for a little bit. He would whine, but when I came back he was calm. I increased the time each day. They need to know you will be back. I also give Murphy a few treats in his x-pen when I leave. It does take time.

How long is he left in there?
