My new puppy arrives tomorrow morning and I just had this thought pop into my head... puppy will sleep in a crate (at least until she's old enough to sleep in bed with me, hehe) and I know she'll cry... with my two previous pups I would just sleep with my fingers poking through the crate door, but I'm wondering if having a buddy to sleep with would maybe help? One of my other chihuahuas always sleeps in her crate, she loves it, so I thought maybe if I put her in with puppy it would help with the new kids loneliness (yes, the crate is big enough for two chihuahuas to snuggle). Obviously the adult girl would have to be ok with it...
I dunno, just throwing it out there. Maybe it's a bad idea? Maybe it's best for puppy to learn independence "the hard way" (is there an easy way? lol) ? Thoughts?
