Dont forget to keep your books, shoes and clothing out of harms way of a teething puppy. Crate the puppy when youre out of the house or confine him in a safe area with all his appropriate chew bones and toys.

However, do not let the puppy out because it is whining. You must allow at least 5 minutes of silence before letting the puppy out. Your pet must never associate whining with being let out of the crate.

The next stage is to leave the puppy in the crate for up to 1 hour, and then up to 2 hours. And again, always allow at least 5 minutes of silence before letting the puppy out. When you do open the door, make sure to exercise your puppy well. Never leave your puppy in the crate for more than 4 hours at a time. I’ll repeat again the necessity of exercise, and this is expecially true if you have to leave your puppy crated for long periods of time on a regular basis.
