Hello,
Im new to the forum and just got a new choc. Lap puppy named Roxy who will be 8 Wks old on Friday.
My question is about crate training. She is going to be a big dog, so I dont want her to get used to sleeping with us or on a bed or furnature. Ive been reading a lot about crate training since getting her, but my question is those of you who have crate trained, what was your experience with it and what worked or didn't work for you?
She is getting better about going in and going to sleep in her crate but we still have episodes of whinning/barking, especially as it get closer to morning and we are not yet ready to get up for the day.
Thank you all so much for any advice you can give me
