I have a 3 month old puppy that will whine, yelp, cry, bark as soon as I'm out of sight for no reason. It isn't because she's hungry/thirsty/has to go potty. Since she's just a puppy and I'm crate training her, I put her in her crate when I can't supervise her or when I'm gone for a few hours, I let her stay in her exercise pen with water and a pee pad. When she's either in her crate or pen, and she sees that I'm not there, she barks and whines. Both crate and pen located near family activ, not isolated. Even if I step out of her sight just to go to the bathroom, she yelps and cries. Or even if I'm just a feet away, but out of her sight, she still complains. She's extremly loud and has a high pitched bark for a 2lb puppy. I tried leaving her a stuffed kong toy to distract her so she doesn't notice me leaving, but the second she sees me leaving, she just ditches her toy and barks and cries. I tried giving her all kinds of toys. The neighbors complain. What do I do?
