Is your puppy howling, whining or barking?  Puppies whine for a reason.  If the problem is not corrected immediately, whining can become a habit that is intensely irritating and annoying.  Many dogs use whining, howling and barking as a means to control their owners.

Train your dog by :

Confining your puppy to a crate or small room or pen and always give your puppy the benefit of the doubt.  When she begins whining, immediately take her to her toilet area.

Teach  your dog to accept isolation and privacy.  Train your puppy to travel in a dog tote carrier.  Accustom your puppy to being left by herself, even if you are home.  make sure your puppy is comfortable.  Is your puppy hungry, thirsty, too hot, too cold, uncomfortable, sick or has lost her toy under the furniture?  Know that all your puppy’s physical needs are met and you have taken the time to accustom her to isolation, then teach her that whining is unacceptable.

Don’t give in and reward your puppy for whining.

Don’t hesitate to appropriately reprimand unnecessary whining.

Don’t let your dog feel abandoned.

Don”t let your puppy soil her crate.
