6-7 week old puppy cries A LOT?
A 6-7 week old puppy is very young. It is a baby and it will cry a lot and that is normal. It needs to bond with you. Spending time with you in a quiet manner, cuddling is the best thing you can do. You are replacing its mother. It has never been away from its mom before. At night, put a crate/travel carrier on your bed, put the dog in it and close the door. Let your fingers poke through the door so the puppy knows you're there. Just make cooing sounds but DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR. Next night do the same. again, and again. In a week, the dog will sleep in the kennel, alone, overnight, without crying. Depending on the breed, it may be able to go 4-6 hours through the night without a potty break at this age, increasing the length of time by an hour a week up to 8 hours/night by age 12 weeks. Research your breed online. You can do it.
Why do Husky puppies cry all night?
This answer is going to be a lil long. So everyone try and bare with me. I bought my Husky Pup on 30 Apr 2018 when he was 01 Month old. I named him GOKU after my Favorite Character(at least one of my Fav)To be frank, Goku never cried at night. Maybe because he got lots of Kisses, love,affection that he immediately imprinted on us.Presently he is 05 Months old. The moment anyone gets a pup home, make sure never leave the pup alone for more than 10–15 mins. There are a lot of other things which one should know before buying or adopting a pup. Goku has been such a good pup.Huskies in general are such a smart dog breed that no matter how Adventure freak you are,they will always take you by surprise. They are born Jokers, born Hunters with Killer Instincts. They get bored easily.I will be uploading some of Goku's pictures in chronological order.Any doubts about Huskies, do let me know in the comment section.Any more questions or information, do ask in the comments below. Have a great day.Well if anyone is also interested in watching Goku's daily updates, make sure you follow him on Instagram : @goku07707UPDATE : 26 Mar 19
My 5 week old puppy whines LOUDLY every night...How do I make this stop or happen less often?
She is very young and missing her mom and siblings. Most puppies scream and yell for the first 2-4 nights and then gradually they quieten down as they get used to sleeping alone. You are doing the right thing by having a box next to your bed for her to sleep in. Don`t be tempted to have her in your bed at this young age as you could easily fall asleep and roll over and smother her to death. Or she could fall off the bed during the night and injure herself. I don't believe in letting pups cry and scream all night because they are anxious and a little afraid so just let her know you are close to her by putting your hand into her box and stroking her if she cries. You will find she wil need this comfort less an less as she gets used to living with you. Eventually you can move her into a crate at night and gradually move it out of your bedroom if you wish to. Remember she is rather young to be away from her mom but I have found that pups of 5-6 weeks settle into a new environment faster than a pup of 8 weeks and over. Soon you will wonder what all the fuss is about. I don`t believe that you can expect any behaviour problems from her as she matures just because you had her home at 5 weeks old, especially if you take the time to socialise her well and carry her about in your arms or in a basket to see the world until she has had all her vaccinations. Most of my pups in the past decades came to me at 6 weeks old and they all matured into well balanced sociable dogs. You only get out of a dog what you are prepared to put in. Good Luck. Ps: If she tries to play at night when you take her out for her pee just ignore her and put her back into her box. Its good you take her out during the night to pee and don`t forget to praise her really well when she does her pee or poo.

Why does my 5 month old puppy cry so much?
There are many possible reasons why your 5 month old puppy may be crying.The dog may have separation anxiety, a condition where the dog fears being left alone . Dogs with separation anxiety tend to dig at the floor around the door or biting and pulling at the door. Dogs with separation anxiety have been known to destroy furniture, mattresses, widow blinds, curtains, and chairs as a result of their anxiety.The puppy may have been removed from his mother to soon creating an insecure animalWith out more specifics as to when your puppy is crying I can’t offer mote specific advise as to “Why”You might try putting a wind up alarm clock either in his bed or next to his crate, this often times calms an anxious dog. Consider putting a nylabone with the dog when you crate him. Chewing on the bone will calm him.Be careful about “comforting your dog as you may actually re enforce this behavior. Tell the puppy NO ! when they stop whining / crying then pet or stroke the dog.
I bought a Labrador puppy (35 days old) 2 days ago. What do they eat? What are good nutritious foods we should give him? Do they also drink milk?
35 days old puppy is too early to get them separated from their mother. As an experienced owner of a Golden retriever and a Labrador I will share some of my personal experiences below about their habits.Food Habits:Try to avoid Cows milk. The puppy wont be able to digest it and will lead to motions. Curd is the best to be introduced but strictly after atleast 1 month. **sometimes if you don’t have curd handy and you need to feed your puppy, take 1 bowl of milk and preshat that for 3 minutes and then increase the flame and add 1 tea spoon of lemon. This will break the milk and then you can add the extra solid food to that and then give to the puppy.I have used Royal Canin Maxi starter for my puppies and I have seen that they liked that. You need to keep in mind that you should not over feed the puppy. Once the puppy wokes up in the morning just give some curd mixed with water. Thenafter 15–20 minutes you can feed him the solid food.Feed the puppy for 4 times a day. Morning you can feed the puppy by around 9 Am. 1 pm noon you can mix the Dog food like RC or Drools with mashed potatoes and curd and feed your puppy. Vegetables are always good for the puppy’s health. You can also use carrots and beans. Boil them properly and then mix with the Dog Food along with curd and feed. 5Pm-6Pm you can feed once the same food. By 10 Pm feed your puppy with a bit more curd so that the digestion process will work properly.Make sure that the puppy is kept in a hygienic place. Also make sure that there is nothing that is kept on the ground such as papers, paperclips or small things that are chewable as the puppy might swallow which might create trouble.Banana is one of the fruit that you can give the puppy at this age. Just take 1/4 of a medium sized banana and then smash and then feed the puppy. That will also act as the treat.Avoid Sweet things also too much salty things.Make sure to keep a bowl of fresh water near the puppy always.Make the puppy play with you so that that will increase its appetite and also will make the puppy more active.But I need to state that Lastly you are the owner of your puppy and you need to take an active part in his life. Just have a check what food he likes the most and at what timings. Maintaining the timings will give the proper growth to your puppy.Thank you and I am happy to share my experience.
Crying 7 week old puppy please help!!!?
This puppy is way too young, to have been taken away from it's mom. By law, the puppy has to be at least 8 weeks old at the youngest, before it can be taken away from it's mom and siblings. Whoever sold you this puppy at 6 weeks old is an Idiot, broke the law and should have known better. Sounds like you got your puppy from a BYB to me! This puppy needs and wants it's mom and siblings and that's why it's crying. It's not crying for No Reason! It's not ready to go to a new home yet! Do NOT give her any milk! Dogs are lactose intolerant and it will make her sick! Take her back to her mom and siblings where she belongs!
