My 8-week-old puppy barks at night. How to make her sleep alone?

I see that Rhea is still very young, only about 6 months old. I'm also not sure from your description if she is barking because she needs to go out and potty, or because she is anxious and lonely in her kennel. If she is needing to potty this often at night, I would be concerned that she may have a medical problem such as a UTI causing this - in that case, it would be best to take her to the vet to have this checked. If she doesn't need to potty but is just restless and upset in her kennel, I would first make sure that her kennel is in your bedroom - right next to your bed, if possible. It's not natural for puppies to be all alone at night, so many pups will cry if they are isolated in a separate room from their owners. Normally, moving her so that she is nearby resolves the problem - you can talk softly to her to reassure her if she wakes up and gets scared during the night.

Daisy is just a baby, so it's to be expected that she will bark and howl if she is left alone at night - normally, puppies would never be alone at this age because they always have their mother and littermates around. I would recommend moving Daisy's crate into your bedroom beside your bed, instead of leaving her in the kitchen by herself - this way, she can hear you and smell you at night, which will make her feel much more secure and less anxious. If she whines or seems uneasy, just talk softly to her to reassure her. She should quickly learn to sleep well at night as long as she is with you. Once she gets older, if you don't want the crate beside your bed, you can gradually move it to another location in your bedroom or even another part of the house if you wish.

It could be that bella has realized if she barks she gets attention from you all. She is barking to get taken outside or even just attention through the night. I would recommend trying to crate train her. This will allow her an area that is safe and only hers. The crate can be a really positive place . You can start off by putting her in it for short intervals and rewarding her going in and coming out. it is important to make the crate a happy place. You could also try just moving her to another room so she is not sleeping with you all.

Congrats on the new puppy! I think it is fine to leave him alone as long as he is in a crate so he can’t harm himself or get into any trouble. At this age he is likely going to need to be let outside at least once or twice in the middle of the night until he is able to hold it all night. You can play a low volume radio/music or put a ticking clock near him to help soothe him at night. I would not give him any water after an hour before he goes to bed. This way he has plenty of time to process that water and pee before bed. I hope this helps! https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.petcoach.co/amp/article/how-to-crate-train-your-dog

She is still very young and it will take her some time to learn to sleep through the night. You could try to put her crate next to your bed and see if that helps. You could also try an Adaptil Collar or Diffuser and Solliquin chews. https://www.adaptil.com/us/ http://www.solliquin.com/#page-top

If she is in a crate, cover the crate with a sheet. You can also leave a night light on as well as a radio tuned to a talk radio station. These items may provide "company" for Lily. Make sure she has had her walk to eliminate before bedtime.

Increase his activity during the day, if possible, to tire him out. Use a cover on his crate to block light. Let him out to use the bathroom just before bedtime. Try a pheromone product such as the Adaptil collar or DAP plug in diffuser. This may decrease any anxiety he may have at night.
