    Puppy whines and i feel bad!?

    Well, our 12 week old puppy is still in a kennel at night to fully train her. She whines and I feel bad. Is this right or am I hurting her? I feel really bad so I just wanted to know if this is normal and right for a puppy or not.

    dont feel bad, its like the first day of school ; you miss your parents badly and you cling, your baby has to grow up sooner or later :]

    You are not hurting her. As a matter of fact, if you stay the course you'll find that she goes to the crate on her own very soon, as she will think of it as her den or bed.

    Good luck!

    Completely fine. If you baby her when she whines, she'll learn that everytime she whines, she gets attention.

    Leave her in the kennel, she'll stop after she finds out it doesn't do any good.

    omg.
    at least pu alot of blankets and like a big stuffed animal.
    why do people crate train them?
    they will just take them out when they are adults.
    my dog wasnt crate trained ansd she is fine.
    but your dog is fine besides being lonely

    This is normal...but since she is a puppy she may not be used to being alone... so a nice stuffed animal or warm water bottle may make her feel like you are there with her or the momma dog is there
