why is it that your puppy crys even if you are in the same room. but she/he does not want you to pick her/him up he/she just sitts there and crys they do not want to go out or anything they just want to sit there and cry and cry but if you talk to them they when act like they want to answer you. are they trying to tell you something or is something wrong that they think you can understand them when they cry. does it make you fell bad when they just sitt there and cry.

Hey sassy, There could be a few reasons for a puppy to cry. It would depend on how old they are and how long you've had them. A new puppy may cry when you first get them if they have just been taken away from their mother or their brothers and sisters. The may be lonely and afraid and missing them. They could be crying because they are just not used to being in a new place and they are babies. You need to try and be a mommy to them. Like I said it depends on how old they are and if they were just taken away from their litter. That's very important to know. New puppies always cry alot. If you give me a little more information I might be able to answer better. My X-boyfriend is a dog breeder and I helped him with his new born puppies alot.

It is good for a puppy to cry. It develops the lungs. But it is probably doing it because it knows you will respond. Its way of getting ahead of you in the pack.

I think puppies are just like babies, they cry for attention, they cry because something is wrong, it is very hard to know why sometimes, i think sometimes it is our fault as we create a habit that babies and puppies learn very quickly how to get us to give them what they want...they are very clever...
