Puppy Whining
Hi -
She was 1 of 9 puppies and according to the people we got her from she should be 8 weeks now, but I think she may be a week or two younger. Sometimes she whines when she's in her crate which makes sense to me (but she doesn't stop until we take her out - sometimes over 3 hours!), but now she whines out of her crate any time we aren't doing exactly what she wants us to do. I play with her constantly and she gets at least 2 long walks a day. We also have a 7 year old golden retreiver, so she's not totally alone - she even whines around him if he isn't playing as much as she wants. Two days ago we even got a sound machine to provide background noise when she sleeps to try to soothe her a bit - it helps a little, but not enough. I know that puppies are going to whine, but it can't be good for her to whine over 4 hours a day. She's gone to the vet and she said Ali was a healthy puppy. I don't know what else to do! Thanks for any advice!
