Crate Training our 9 month old Beagle?

Our Beagle is very well behaved and intelligent. However, we are lacking in one training area. He has separation anxiety. We crate him during the day while we are at work and I don’t think he sleeps. We come home and release him calmly, but he is soon to rest after a potty break. If we crate him while at home he whines. We wait until he stops before letting him out, but it only gets worse. I want to create an inviting rest time for him during the day. Can you please help?

    Is he doing this because he's mad?

    I have a 4 month old german shepherd. we’ve had house breaking problems, but we seem to be pretty well over that. except for when hes in is crate. he has a large crate with divider panel. its blocked off so he has just enough room to turn around. it seems that about half the time i leave he has peed in his crate then lays in it. at night im letting him out about every 3 1/2 to 4 hours and durning the day i work on the same property i live on so im comin home about every 2 hours an letting him out. hes been to the vet and is healthy. i have tried removing the bedding thinking if he lays in a puddle he will stop but it doesnt work. so then i tried giving him a treat when i come home and his crate is dry, i tell him “good clean bed” and pet him then take him outside, then i let him play for a few min. and when its wet i dont give him a treat and tell him he was a bad dog for having a wet crate. and i take him outside, then put him right back in the crate. it just isnt workin.
    he is out when ever i can be home. when i come home for lunch hes out running for about a half hour, then on days that im not busy at work i come home early and he get to run and play….then at night he spends about 5 hours playing and sleeping. he gets a pretty good amount of excersize. but i live in vermont and its winter…an that no time for a puppy to be spending lots of time outside. and i wont have him running free in my house chewing things… since he is teething. in the summer i have a big kennel that he’ll be able to run in, but in the winter i take it down to be able to plow the driveway. so if somebody can give me some real good advice on a way to try to break him of this before it becomes an adult habit, i would be greatful. and please no comments that tell me i shouldnt have a dog. i know what im getting into with it, and i’ve had shepherds before. I also have experiance as a horse trainer, in how to teach an animal something. Thank you for anyone who can help

    When crate training puppy do you put him in crate while doing housework or other things during the day?

    For example if I’ve played with him and he’s eliminated outside but now I really need to make beds or do laundry or pay bills do I have him tag along or does he take a break in the crate?

    How can I house break a dog who has bad habits? | Unofficial Potty …

    I’m no trained professional but I love training dogs. I’ve trained our dog to many tricks and commands.

    I typically work with the idea of rewarding and disciplining. If the dog goes in the house, discipline harshly in a way the dog can understand, a short loud “NO!” said a few times. I have a friend who is struggling and she says “We don’t go to the bathroom in the house.” Do you think the dog understands that? No way. Dog’s can read emotions and can pick up on intonation. So again, short, powerful, “NO!”.

    When the dog does something you like, praise, over and over so the dog knows what he/she just did is good. I usually praise the dog verbally, “Good Girl” in a very pleasant voice, while petting her and rubbing her, and also giving her a treat (choose or even small training treats).

    It takes time. But you can train your dog. You just have to be consistent and follow through.

    Our last dog would ring a bell when she had to go outside. She didn’t come with that knowledge she was trained. Our current dog can decipher between “Couch” “Chair” “My Room” “Sit” “Stay” “Speak” “Paw” “Rollover” (notice all commands are short, distinct, one or two word commands).

    It takes time. People marvel that we have a well behaved dog…but it took a lot of work.

      House Training Tips For a New Corgi Puppy

      So You Got a New Corgi Pup

      Adorable aren’t they? As soon as you get them home, they’re all over the place. Herding the cat, barking at the T.V and just wreaking havoc on your shoes. At least, that’s what mine did. The homecoming is probably the most memorable experience; it’s also the best opportunity to instill good habits into your new Corgi pup. It’s really not that hard of a thing to do, as long as you follow these basic tips.

      Potty Training 101

      First off, take your puppy to a designated “potty” area somewhere outside and put them down on the grass. Be patient, this is a biggy, wait while they sniff around. Don’t pet or play with them yet, you don’t want to create a connection that this area is the “play area” and not the “potty area”.

      To help associate this area even further, when you take your puppy out, say something like, “Go pee” or “potty time”. Its best if the phrase is short and recognizable. And remember, be patient. You’ll be saying, “Potty time” a lot before your Corgi knows what it means.

      Remember to praise them after they finish. Give them a treat, make the connection that going potty outside, is a good thing.

      Develop a Training Schedule

      Develop a training routine, and stick to it! I suggest crate training, it’s what I used on my puppy and it worked great. There are other methods, but from I’ve heard, crate training is one of the best.

      The schedule I used and you don’t have to do this if it doesn’t work for you, was this:

      7am: Wake up. Puppy comes outside with you for a toilet break.

      7.25: Breakfast (for me and the puppy).

      7.45: Back outside for another potty break (accompanied by you, of course.)

      7.50 – 8.45: Play-time! Take the puppy out of the crate, and play with it!

      8.45: Back outside for another potty break.

      8.50 – 11: Put the puppy back in the crate for a nap.

      11 am: Potty break again! Bring em’ outside, and remember, be patient!

      11.05 – 12.30: Playtime Again! Play and pet your puppy! Keeping them active is a must!

      12.45: Another potty break.

      1 – 3.30: Nap time, put them back in the crate.

      Crate Training Rules of Thumb

      Corgis are very active dogs and require a lot of attention and room. Because of this, they won’t like going in the crate the first couple of times. Mine barked and whined for a couple hours, but if you follow the schedule you made closely and shower your puppy with lots of attention while they’re out of the crate, when they’re in the crate they’ll see it as their own personal haven where they can relax and get a nap in peace.

      Remember! Be Patient and Steadfast! If you use this method, they will whine, but don’t respond to it.

      Bringing it All Together

      Puppy training is hard, especially when you’re a Corgi owner. But you got to stick with it, and be patient above everything else.

      When in the crate, they will whine and beg. But don’t worry, if you make the crate nice and cozy with blankets or towels, they’ll think its heaven!

      Stick to the schedule, don’t forget this! Puppies’ bladders are very small and weak, so you have a small window to get them outside before they ruin your carpet. Because of this, is imperative that you take them outside as soon as they wake up and within ten minutes of eating or playing.

      Crates act on a dog’s instinct to keep its den clean and unsoiled. Keeping your dog in a crate teaches him to “hold it” until he can go in an appropriate place, which helps your puppy develop his bladder control. For older dogs, crates act as a “bedroom” where they can relax and escape the hustle and bustle of kids, other pets, and everyday family life. Also, it’s never too late to crate train! A crate can help break bad habits that improperly trained dogs may have developed over the years.
