I have a 10 week old mini Aussiedoodle, we have his brother that is 1 1/2 years old and a Westie that is 15 1/2.
I am having trouble getting him to stay in his crate during the day. He sleeps in it for 6 hours at night with no problems. The day time is totally different. He will cry (a lot) and move around for 30 minutes plus. He calms down but then within the hour is crying again. I am only putting him in with the gate closed when I leave. I give him a treat to go in and one to come out. I have also put him in during the day with the gate open with a rawhide (supervised).
Any help would be appreciated.
