My husband and I have adopted a puppy! He’s a mutt, but we know he’s part corgi. We both grew up with dogs. He’s about 8.5 weeks old.
We’ve tried crate training the way our puppies have done in the past, but he doesn’t seem receptive. If we place him inside, he tries to climb out, even if someone is right next to the door. We’ve tried placing him in while he’s sleeping, but he usually wakes up and immediately tries to climb out.
If we shut the door, he loses it and begins biting and gnawing at the bars. He barks and howls to such a degree that our neighbors have complained.
None of the four puppies we’ve had in the past have ever had this reaction. What do you guys recommend?
