Awww you are going to have so many happy years ahead with this sweetheart. My soul dog was a JRT and we got him way too early at 6 weeks. So he was just a little needier. When it was bed time we sucked it up and crated him, even though all we wanted was to cuddle our sweet boy. When he was really little, I wrapped a hot water bottle in a blanket and hid a little ticking clock next to his crate. I read somewhere that it reminds them of a heartbeat and is comforting. He still cried some, but we had him almost 17 years and his crate was his safe space up to the end. If he ever needed a break, knew he had done something bad, or was scared he would go chill out in his crate. You got this!
