I have a 7 week old lab. he goes into the crate no problem. But cannot fall asleep in it. I have to wait until he is just about to fall to sleep to put him in, then he stays in it for a hour. Recently i started to try and close the door, then he freaks out. Can someone help me out? Any tips are appreciated. I had dogs before but this is the first one I had that i am trying to crate train. Also For those who will get mad, I do know he is young to be away from his mom, but he had to leave for good reason. I only need advice, not to be told what i already know.
Thanks :)
