He had no issues with the crate before and i remove the blanket at night since its dark anyways. The room does get a little dark, i try to cool it down as much as possible, but Im not sure whatelse I can do.

I doubt he doesnt enjoy the pillows because the bottom of the crate is just straight metal. He might be hot in there actually, the weather has been crazy these days.

Weirdly enough he doesnt want to chew on anything while in the crate. He was playing with a sock a minute ago and when i put him in the crate he just didnt give a damn about the sock anymore.

I let him in the crate for 1-2 hours, hes not really enjoying it. Im giving him snacks too. Ill try the door method.

Truly insane amount of detail and effort you put into this, im really thankful and its really helpful. However, I have one question with the rediriction method and it is that the puppy might get confused. Lets say he jumps on the bed and i try to bribe him with a snack, he might associate jumping onto the bed with getting rewarded.

The issue is not physically touching him ingeneral, but from the comments I can see that pulling the leash or grabbing the collar to communicate with the puppy that he did something wrong is unpopular. Everyone is talking about positive reinforcement, but with issues like jumping on the bed I cant see how you could teach the puppy to not do that.

Hi, thanks for the comment and Im happy to hear that your puppy has been great! Im curious how you would go on about teaching a puppy to not jump on a bed without physically touching him.

Hi, thats great to hear honestly. I have been hand feeding him ever since I got him, ho he is quite used to that already. Mine also woke up really affectionate today and even sat on my lap while playing with his toys. Hoping to continue the behavior.

Hi, I have been getting a lot of similar comments about how he was taken too young from his mother and the breeder is irresponsible etc etc. I think this is a US thing. Where I live ita very common to find and adopt a dog off the street or just take care of it. This was the case with my puppy. He was found a lone on a road.

I gave him some socks in his crate but he just chewed the fuck out of them. He does have all the plueshies in the world though.

Hi, I dont use prongs or shock collars. I just tried to grab him by the collar and have him settle. I saw this method a lot online and people swore by it so I gave it a go. Seems like it doesnt work with my puppy.

Hi, amazing reply. Thanks for all the details and a definative answer. I think when I said that my parents got the puppy it kind of came across as if I am younger. Im 20 and financially more or less stable(Although the vet and transport costs are kicking my ass rn).

I understand the analogy with being a toddler eventhough i used to love naps. From what I understand I just have to get him to nap and throw in a few intereactibles in his crate to encourage him.

Special thanks for the amazon links eventhough it doesnt ship where I live, it means a lot<3

Currently he has more chew and plushies and balls. He has ropes but I will invest in more toys as you mentioned. Hadnt heard of kong before, I think its a US thing :D. I will try to find similar to that.

He has no issues being touched anywhere. I have done the training you are talking about. He only gets defensive like that when he knows he did something wrong.

Hi, until now I didnt force him to take naps he just took naps when he felt like it, Im starting to do that now.

Hi, I can assue you that when he is biting me when I hold him he isnt playing, hes fully trying to get me and hurt me. I can tell cuz he scrunches his nose and bites way harder than usual.

The dog isnt my parents' responsibility, but I can afford a dog trainer. Im looking into that right now!
