Phoebe has found her barker!!!

Sierra let us know loud and clear what she thought about being crated at night for about a week, and then she got used to it.  No one in the house got much sleep that week...  LOL.  Every now and then we would SHH her or try using the word Quiet, (which she still doesn't listen to)but mostly we tried to ignore it so she didn't learn to use barking just for attention.  She eventually quieted down when she realized I wasn't letting her out unless it was to take her to the bathroom at night.  Even then, I waited at least 10 minutes after she quieted down to take her out.  I didn't want her to associate barking with being let out of the crate.  Now we leave her crate open all day and she usually chooses to go in there herself to chew her bone or take a nap.  We are not yet to the point where we trust her all night though, so she's still crated at bed time.

I crated Tripper right from the get go. He let us know he didn't like it but after a week of him screaming at us he stopped. Now he screams in the morning if I try and sleep in a bit. He never slept in my room though. His crate is in the living room downstairs. He even gets in it on his own now.
