Considering getting my old spaniel from my mums and leaving her with him for a few weeks so he has some company to settle him down. I wouldn't put another dog in wi him it will stop it but when you tek the other dog away it your be back to howling again I got 1 if left on it's own starts it and she 6 luckily I keep a few 1 Quote Link to post

PJCaswell 114 Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Buckets of water work a treat with older dogs barking in a back gardens but not for an 11 week old pup. Pup is fine - bit of howling at that age when left alone is normal. Just go with it but done make a big deal out of leaving or coming back. And at night no hugging the dog, just stick it out, wait to it goes to the toilet and put it back in its bed. Don't even look at it. It’s not play time. I’d try to stop the night toileting soon. Its got to understand that if it dumps in its bed its sleeping in with it till morning. Part of the way a crate works is that it is the dogs zone and dogs don’t like dumping in their sleeping zone. I’d make sure it spends some time in the crate with you doing things in the room. Knacker it out first but put it in the crate awake. Get everybody in the house to do the same. Its got to know sometimes its got to be happy on its own. 3 Quote Link to post

tandors 888 Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Try feeding it in the crate so it associates being in it as a positive experience. 1 Quote Link to post
