Home for 36 hours and hates playpen and crate…need help!

We brought home the sweetest Maltipoo (8.5 weeks) yesterday! He has a playpen and crate in our kitchen, but he is whining and crying incessantly unless someone is in his playpen with him (even if we’re standing next to the playpen in the kitchen). We’ve been trying to sit with him for a few minutes, calm him down, and then resume being in the kitchen…it’s getting slightly better, but it’s tough to see him in distress all day.

He’s gotten better about the crate…he’ll go in there to nap, but can’t stay asleep unless we’re in the playpen.

Any tips? Ideas? Open ears!
