2 month BT whines

I just got my 2 month puppy Jake about a week ago. He whines and cries all Of the time. I can't leave him alone be cause he won't stop crying. What do I do to make him stop? He also is a barker does that mean he will be a barker his whole life or is it just a puppy stage?

Sleeppy Boston Terrier
by: Brenda

My boyfriend just got a 1 month and one week boston terrier, he is so cute ... we had difficulties feeding him he does not want to eat. He is very playful and sleeps A LOT, I dont know if it is because he is still a baby or how should I treat him?

It sounds like a normal puppy. They want to be with you all the time. Let him stay with you as much as you can. When he barks, say "no" and try diverting his attention to a toy.

When he has to be alone tell him to "hush". Then just do what you need to do and leave him alone. He will get the message after about 3 weeks. Just don't give in.

Read what you can about crate-training and decide if that is what you want to do. That is what we did but it doesn't work for everyone. Also, training him on the leash now will help with everything else. You must start early and do it every day. Teach him to obey you and you will have a very happy life with him.
