Puppy Crying at night

khuerta07

Hello,

It seems that my bull terrier which is 8 weeks old and we have had him for 4 days now, seems to cry a lot at night. He sleeps in his bed and doing very well with waking us up to take him out to potty but the crying doesn't stop and this is only at night. Can you guys me out on this. 

he is completely healthy and very strong but dont know what to do at night when you cries all night.

Hi, and welcome. I don't know of any puppy that didn't cry at night in the beginning. Obviously you need to check, as you apparently are, that it isn't from a need to hit the bathroom. Once you attend to that and put him back in his crate! If he keeps crying, you have to ignore him. If he had a medical problem it would be evident in the day. Put his crate somewhere that you can't hear him or, if that's not possible, use ear muffs so you can get some sleep. If you are going to deafen yourself to him then u need make sure he is checked on every so often. If he doesn't get any attention when he is crying he will soon tire himself out and fall asleep. Then he'll stop wasting his breath after a few weeks. If you are regularly picking him up when he cries, then you will be making the situation worse.

Raider cried only on the first night home and that's because he needed to go potty.  After that night I moved his crate from the laundry room to our bedroom and to this date, he had slept all night without a peep.

@bigbear1tracey - The photo isn't showing up because it's a word document not photo. This will happen also if the the photo is too big in size. Unless the photo is under 1 mb it won't post as a thumbnail photo.
