I’m intrigued but I want to know 2 things:
1. Culture/WLB - how is it?

Recent puppy owner of about a month. Seems i’m mentally scarred from her crying at night, so much so that my mind makes up sounds of her crying, which causes my sleep to be interrupted.


In reality, she doesnt cry at all at night now, and her crate is in the hallway…
