It&#8217;s likely to make their anxiety worse and could lead to behavior problems. Not only will you hear it, but your neighbors will hear crying, too. Even if you live in a soundproof home or have a mansion, the noise will be audible even if they&#8217;re alone.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_OK_to_ignore_your_puppy_crying_at_night\"><\/span>Is it OK to ignore your puppy crying at night?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ignoring them at night won&#8217;t help them build confidence and may make them worse which isn&#8217;t what anyone wants.
