I was having this exact same problem with my puppy... I was told to place the crate in a different room... when she is in a crate next to you she sees and hears you and wants to be right next to you, not have this barrier between you... in placing the crate in another room you are making it so that the puppy cant see you, and she'll calm down faster... it may take some time but she will get used to it... also if you have a loud ticking clock, or a small quiet radio put one of them in the same room... it breaks up the silence so she'll calm down quicker. More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
