    Was searching for help with crate crying--and you've given me hope! We seem to have maybe turned the corner today. She's 13 weeks.

    How is he doing now, over a month later? That pic is so adorable.

    He's doing really well - thanks for asking :)

    We kept on with the training and building him up - the only time I've heard him bark in the past month or so was when he'd been poorly in his crate. Apart from that you get the occasional whine.

    We've been filming him when we go out and he can easily go 2 hours without a sound. He whines a lot more when we're in.. Obviously just wants some attention!:rolleyes:

    Have you been doing click for quiet? Just keep it up, and ignoring when they do make a sound. They get there! Glad to hear you're already making progress. 13 weeks is still a little baby, little love is probably finding his feet. One day you'll just realise you haven't heard him bark for ages, I'm sure of it :)

    Rorys approaching 3 now and it's amazing how all the silly stuff is melting away. He is maturing in his own way. I love the fact all the work is paying off. It does happen eventually

    Glad to hear it! When I return she's crying so I never know if she was the whole time, or just heard the car and started.

    We are doing click for quiet. I feel like we may have turned a corner as of yesterday; she took two several-hour naps in there without *too* much complaint. About 10 minutes of quiet whining at the start. Which sure beats what's happened before when I've had to leave her in there - hours of yowling and screaming like she's dying.
