I always crate train my babies before they leave home. So, most of them accept 
the crate and never make a fuss when they go to their new homes. I also try 
doing some minor obedience, sit for dinner, come when called. Stay when you 
open the gate. It all helps them adjust when they already know some commands.

bed/owner when sleeping?


  Hi,

  I had an 8 week puppy go home Saturday, and of course talked about crate 
training, puppy basics, etc. including giving them several articles to read. 
They are newly married couple, and seemed to be very educated about Shepherds, 
and both had family dogs prior to being married.

  Well I talke d to them yesterday, they have stopped the crate since the puppy 
is throwing a fit, and knocked the divider down.  She feels bad for him and 
says he has seperation anxiety and the crate just made it worse.  She tried 
putting a baby gate up in the kitchen, and he climbed over it...surprise 
surpirse..since he MUSt be with her or he will be upset.  She sounded very 
anxious, and has started following the Monks of New SKette book by tying him to 
her arm when she goes to bed so he knows she is with him?? and he can not go 
far.  She even talked about making a bedding area on her bed for him to help 
ease his anxiety.  She is home the next week on vacation, and then her husband 
is taking off the following week to care for him.  She is worried what will 
happen when they start back at work.

  I stressed to her this is the WRONG way to start his puppy training.  I 
expalined she is letting him win by taking him out of the crate.  Additionally, 
he needs to spend some time away from her to learn it is ok to be away from 
mom.  I can see this turning bad if she continues this course of giving into 
his evry whim.  

  Does anyone have any online articles/books to recommend to help her 
understand that the Monks suggestion to tie him to her at night is NOT the best 
approach when raising a pup?  Any suggesstions, books, articles, would be 
greatly appreciated.
