After reading your other posts, I now know you’re referring to a six month old German shepherd puppy. There could be many reasons. There’s not enough information here to identify the problem. When is it happening? What is going on at that time? What is the dogs activity level at that moment?

hi! thank you so much for answering my questions you have been a great help, currently i dont take her on walks because i wasnt able to leash train her i tried but it was just frustrating for the both of us im thinking of putting her in classes, but she plays outside in the backyard thats it,
if she is crying while in the back yard, then she’s aware of the smells and sounds around/beyond the yard. It sounds like she may be communicating an eagerness to explore. If it was happening inside while asleep, it could be dream. If her gait was off & obsessively licking a body part maybe injury.
It sounds like Classes will help, especially addressing items that fall under training (vs vet/medical) specialty. If you read through the profiles on rover in your area, you might find someone who offers training /has GS puppy experience for Walk bookings.
hey! so i realized today she has worms but i gave her some dewormer i have at home so i think that was the eating issue i also gave her wet food and no she cries when i put her in her crate or sometimes she just sits in front of me and lets out a little cry
It sounds like crying could due to pain & discomfort. When you place in crate, it could be that she has worms and like most dogs doesn’t want to soil her crate, be stuck with worms surrounding her. Please keep on flea&worm prevention. If after resolved- reacts same, could be separation anxiety.
i think it's both, she did have worms i gave her medicine 2 days ago i will keep giving her medicine every 3 weeks and i have noticed she has separation anxiety i leave my room for 2 minutes and shes crying again and when i leave her bed is even more destroyed then when i left
This link may help: https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/training/how-to-crate-train-your-dog-in-9-easy-steps/. Except I recommend freezing puppy’s usual food (If Dry: add water, wait to rehydrate) Not P.B. b/c some dogs don’t digest PB well. feed while inside the crate. Some beds are tougher.
i will make sure to read this thank you for all your help deb
