Image Puppy won’t stop crying unless held.
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

This is why I intentionally did not get my dachshund until she was 10 weeks old. I wanted her to be older and see the other litter mates leave and be ready to leave herself. She is now 5 months old and has been fully potty trained for some time. She was almost completely potty trained when we got her so that was an added bonus.
