Today is Newman's first day spending any time at home by himself (9.5 week old beagle puppy). It will be 5.5 hours that he spent in his crate (I know that's too long and he will have soiled it, but it was my safest option for today). It's only his 3rd day using the crate. He hates the crate right now, which I know is normal. When I get home he is probably going to go crazy barking/whining/howling/making wierd gremlin noises that sounds like he is going to die. Do I need to wait until he is 100% calm before letting him outside? I just think it could take up to an hour for him to calm down and I want to get him out of his crate to clean it and him if he needs it. Starting tomorrow he will be in an ex-pen with non-printed white newspaper down because that is what the breeder was using with the pups and she said he doesn't eat it (even though he tries his best to eat anything he can get ahold of...). What do you guys suggest?
Ok disregard the above question, he was actually quiet when I came home. I think he only goes crazy when I leave... and that's when it lasts up to an hour (when I leave the room I hear him for up to an hour)
Does falling asleep count as being calm and submissive?? It seems like if he's not barking/whining/chewing on whatever he can then he's sleeping
