This will cut down the repeat visits to the backyard in the night. If you choose to kennel train your puppy, he or she can be placed in their kennel in your bedroom for bedtime sleep. Your Golden may whine to get out. They do in most cases adapt to a kennel well, but be prepared for yelping and crying that may lead you to believe your puppy is being murdered. You need to be firm and patient at this time or you may end up with the puppy in your bed which you may not want to do for the long haul.
Dogs generally like to bed close to their master as they are pack animals.
If they are housed far away, they think they have been bad and are a castoff because of some wrong doing. I recommend buying blankets from thrift stores as they are less expensive. Goldens love chewing and tearing so an expensive quilted bed could be destroyed in a matter of minutes. A five dollar blanket over a fifty dollar designer bed destroyed has its merits.
