You wind it up and place it on top of the crate, and it is supposed to simulate the mothers heartbeat (combine that with a sheet or towel draped over the crate and you have created a place that the dog feels safe). That may have been the reason it didn’t bark at your parents…it had a companion. > > Is the crate near/in your bedroom? Well he is like 4.5 months old now, do you think that sense of being in the womb would actually be comforting still or is he too old? Also, whenever he stayed at my mother in law’s he didn’t stay with the other dog at night or during the day. He would be in his crate while my MIL was at work and my mom would go over and let him out during the day, but the other dog just roams the house because he is older and won’t make messes or destroy things. At night, Cooper (our puppy) was just down in the laundry room in his crate by himself. At our house, we keep him in the dining room which is one floor below our bedroom, but his barking still keeps us up. I think he has some separation anxiety and just wants to be with us all the time. We know that if we just put him in our bed, he would stop, but then he will just be even more attached to us which would be a bad thing. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/puppy-training-help/199825)._
