I love your training guidance, it’s helped enormously. I have one issue at the moment. My 14 week old puppy will happily go in crate and settles down quickly, day or night. Quick whimper and she’s fine. She goes to sleep and wakes up an hour later, barking like mad until we go in. I don’t let her out but sit next to her, trying to prolong the time she’s in there. How do I get her to stay in crate longer? I don’t want to make her hate the crate but 1 hour is not enough!! I go to work in 10 days time and I thought 7 weeks would be enough to settle her
