Dog barking while in crate

Question
My 7 month old ckc dachshund when placed into her crate becomes very loud as to barking, wining, and banging on the door. I have tried talking to her calmly to settle her down, placing toys to play with, and putting a cover on top to keep it closed for her; but nothing seems to be working. Because unless if she is completely exhausted she does this and becomes annoying at night or when trying to leave. What is there to be done to control this from happening?

Answer

I'm sorry you didn't like my answer, but I thought you wanted to knw a truth, not to hear whar you wanted.
I DID answer the question and tell you how to solve the problem.
The dog hates to be confined in the crate. How to handle it is to get the dog out of the crate.Hi Diane;

Knowledge comes from over 60 years of raising and training dogs.
It couldn't have been more clear. there is only one solution to the problem.
I answered your question within 4 hours of it being sent to me.
Polite? I said clearly I wasn't fussing at you, but after the anount of time you have spent trying to get this dog to do as you wish, and having no results.
I could have been much more rude.
People write to us here because thyey go out and get an animal, when they have no idea how to take care of that animal, and are too cheap to take the animal to a Veterinarian, or take to a trainer, or too indifferent to take the time to learn to train, and to train.
The poor animal suffers.
I answer questions from people who sincerely want to learn, and want to be a good and fair animal owe\ner.
I get very high ratings from these people.
You can't please all the people all the time, and some people can only be pleased wqhen they hear what they want to hear.
They should answer their own questions, and they would always hear compliments.

She behaves that way because she hates to be there.
I don't blame her.
It is completely unnatural for them to be confined like that.
I don't know where these idiots who started this crate business came out of the woodwork from, but they spread this propaganda like Dr. Spock convinced young parents, in the late 40s and 50s to do such psychological damaging things to their children.
Someone who was too lazy and/or uncaring enough to train their dog, or bother with it, convinced themselves the dogs actually like this arrangement.
I have seen a lot of experts on this site and other recommending crates, saying the dogs actually like them.
Sure, the dog will actually go into the crate to take a nap, IF THE DOOR IS LEFT OPEN!
It isn't confined then.
Some dogs adjust to this arrangement, because they are more acceptable to what they know they cannot change.
I am not fussing at YOU.
I am so angered by this so-called expert advise so many are giving.
A crate is good if you are going on a long car trip, and if the dog is in a crate, and there is a wreck, the dog is more protected, but now they have improved the doggy seat belts, and I don't own a crate, would NOt own a crate.
I did use one, one time.
We rescued a little dog that was about to deliver.
My daughter had left her large crate she transported her dog down here in ( to protect it in case of a car accident), and I made a bed in it for the dog to have her puppies.
The door was never closed, and it was comfortable, and easy to change a couple times a day , putting towels in it, and the little rise on the front kept the puppies from getting out and raoming all over the house.
Until they were big enough to see where they were going, she could get some sleep, without worrying about her babies. When they were big enough to get out, and she wanted to sleep, I did close the door, and as soon as she woke and barked, I opened it.
It was just to keep her little brats corraled so she could rest.LOL
She would actually come and get me to close it. That litter gave her fits, and as soon as they were weaned, we had her spayed, found good homes for them, and kept her, and 2 of the little ones.
Sometimes I foster one that will chew distructively, so I confine them to the kitchen area, or the laundry room.
At a time when zoos have come to realize that animals need a more free, natural enviornment to be kept in, for their health and well being, we start caging up our domestic pets, in a way that has been deemed cruelty to wild and dangerous animals.
I feel you got very bad advice when you were told to crate your dog, and I would love to see this practice done away with.
By far, the majority of dog "problems" I am asked about, are from people who have bought into this crate fantasy.
The dogs HATE it, and they will NOT be happy confined in a crate.
I have kept all my dogs in the house, except a coupe that preferred to sleep outside, and I had to build facilities to keep them happiest.
I always housebreak when they are very small puppies, or as soon as I get them, and never have had a problem with soiling the house.
There are sometimes accidents, when I neglect to see that they have access to going out, or they are ill and have trouble holding themselves, and a few times, I have had a lttle one that soiled the house for spite. Training took care of that problem too.
If she does not do well left to the ruin of the house, when you are away, or at night, is there a room she could have her bed in, and a water dish, and lace to go potty?
If you have access to a fenced back yard, a doggy door is a blessing. They can come and go as they need, and mine saves me many steps, as I have 4 dogs, of different sizes, and breeds.
There are doggy litter boxes now, with special litter for dogs. They can be trained to use these, and also trained to use the poop pads.
Don't feel guilty for listening to bad advice.
Moms and dads have to learn. We are not born knowing all about raising kids and animals.
Just think of your dog as a family member. they quickly become members of the family, and behave like family members.
You wouldn't put a child in a cage, and dogs are muh moe like raising children than like raising animals.
