It is very normal.. not only is your puppy is missing her brothers and sisters and mommy too. She is also way to young to be parted from them..She should have been at least 8-12 weeks old before you took her. Two weeks make a lot of difference to a puppy. You need to hold her and comfort her make sure she feels safe as she did with her mommy. You taken here at six weeks is confusing her..You need, at this age give her lots of your time. You may want to hold her in a soft towel as you holding her in your arms..Make her feel safe. Your puppy would have done a lot better if she was 8 weeks old when you got her. Just give her your time and she will be fine.

Six week old puppies are old enough to be weened from their mothers. She is whining because she has been placed in a new and strange environment. It is normal to whine and it will lessen as time passes. If you are crating her at night put a wind up clock in with her wrapped in a towel. The ticking is a replacement for her mothers heart beat. Also once you put her down for the night then you have to leave her and not play with her nymore till morning. You have to get her in a routine. It takes a lot of patience. Also you might put a soft stuffed toy in with the pup so she has something to chew on and snuggle with. Some people will put an old shirt or something with your scent on it so the puppy will be able to smell you. It reallty does work. Just be patient. It may take a couple weeks but it will get better... Good Luck

Well considering she is too young yet to be away from mom and littermates, it's very natural for her to be whining.. You can only keep her comfortable, keep her out of a draft.. crate her at night and teach her good puppies are quiet, and that's how you get let out of the crate.. She isn't going to sleep thru the night.. She'll get up at very least 2 times thru the night and need to go out. She is missing out on at least 2 more weeks of necessary time w/ her mom and littermates.. Start now teaching the things that you want her to know.. Don't allow her to do anything now that you aren't going to find just as adorable as an adult.

As most people are saying, she misses her mother and siblings, but she will quiet down after a few weeks. It could also mean she isn't getting enough attention, so try spending time with her more often.

Yes its very normal. She is missing her mommy and litter mates. Get her a teddy to cuddle up to and put a ticking clock in her blankets (they say it reminds them of the moms heartbeat) and try letting her sleep a bit closer to you for now. (but not in your bed). It will soon pass.

She does that because she is too young to be away from her mother and siblings. She needs two more weeks back where she was.
