My puppy is almost 10 weeks old, we have had him for two weeks he is a lovely dog and is doing well the only problem he's having is dealing with being left alone, he doesn't even like you going out of the room When I leave him to go to work (this is only for 2-4 hours as my partner gets home at 10.30-11ish) he will be barking/crying/howling and when my partner gets home he is still doing it, he can hear him from outside. I'm trying to get him used to it by closing doors behind me etc but it doesn't seem to be helping. Also he is having problems at night we have been sleeping downstairs with him and tried slowly moving the crate but as soon as we got him to the next room (he could still see us) he went mad again. So last night I though I'd try just leaving him alone, well with my other dog (who won't actually stay in the same room as him if he's being noisy) and he just barked all night with maybe an hours break where he must have fallen asleep. I didn't know what to do as everything you read tells you never go to them when they are doing this or they will learn it gets them attention so I just stayed awake all night in bed feeling awful for him and the neighbours, tonight I'm thinking about just bringing his crate upstairs in my room so I can get some sleep but will this be making more problems? I don't know what to do for the best 😔
