Whining could also indicate that your puppy needs to go outside to “go potty”. For this reason it could be helpful to bell-train your dog when they need to go out by tying a jingle bell to a string that hangs down near the door.
Simply touch their nose or paw to the bell every time you take them outside while house-training to associate the bell with going out.
With this method, you do have to pay attention if you hear a faint jingle so you can take them out.
Whining could also indicate that your puppy is tired or feeling frustrated, much like a grumpy child who just needs a nap!
Additionally, whining could indicate that your puppy is hurt or feeling sick. To determine what your puppy needs, watch their behavior and movements to figure out what “type” of whining it could be.
Be patient and work with your puppy so you can better understand their needs and wants when they whine.
