Re: crying at night help
I don't go along with the theory that you have to leave the puppies to cry.
My dogs spent the first few weeks in their crate in my bedroom, as soon as they could go all night with out waking I move the crate into the lounge, where they have slept every night since with out a sound.
If they awoke for a wee I would take them outside without talking or looking at them and return them immediately to their crates.
My thoughts are that the puppy has just lost everything familiar, so I wanted to help them go through these changes and bond with me.
Also I never left my children to cry at night and had their cots in my bedroom for the first few weeks, they all then slept in their own rooms - They were never "spoiled" so why treat the puppy any different.
