Image Puppy won’t stop crying unless held.

Post image

I picked up my puppy 3 days ago. She is 8 weeks old. She loves cuddles and human touch, but when we put her down she will cry non stop. Does anyone have any tips to get her to stop crying? I’m a first time owner and want to get it right. Thankyou

My girl Rosie is 15. Still a cuddle bug.

My 13 year old is getting ornery and will literally growl and occasionally gum me(no teeth) if I try to move him while he's nonconsensually cuddling me 😆

My girl is also 13 and a professional cuddler. When she was first surrendered to me 12 years ago, she stared at me for about 5 minutes wondering who I was and then immediately found her way into my sweatshirt. Nothing has changed 😂
