I have a 3 month old Miniature Pinscher Chihuahua mix puppy. He will not stop whining. I was just wondering how long he will continue whining?

New puppies can cry a lot because they miss their mom. I have had to get some stuffed toys for new puppies in the past to keep them feeling safe and like they are around their other puppies. You can also try to put a stuffed animal near the puppy and use a hot water bottle to make them feel warm and safe.
Are there time periods that he whines more - like at night?
How long have you had him and does he seem to be adjusting to his new home?
Do you use a crate for his sleeping periods?
Does he have any places he can hide away from the 'world' which may be frightening to him.
Some vets say a sweater sometimes helps also.
This is assuming he has not adjusted well and needs to feel more secure and maybe loved like when he was with his mother.
Were there children around in his former home? if so, this may make it even more difficult.
A blanket might help or a piece of clothing that has been worn many help him adjust. Soft toys are good.
Maybe your vet will have some suggestions as I'm sure he will be starting his vaccinations soon.
Please read some of the suggestions from the sites given and maybe try something but not too many changes at once or it may get worse.
