So after a week of absolutely lovely behavior, Gumbo went a little crazy last night. He has been so good when we crate him at night. He usually whines for about 10 minutes and then settles down to sleep. Yes, he wakes up too early for my taste, but we can live with that.
But last night....oh my, last night...he whined with the most painful whine for at least one and a half hours!!! We did everything we were supposed to do, but nothing worked. Finally, we just let him out of the crate, shut the bedroom door, and let him wander around in the bedroom until he finally curled up and went to sleep. The good news is that he slept until 6am this morning. The bad news is that we are exhausted and aren't sure how this is going to affect future crating.
Anyone have any suggestions?
