Pet's info: Dog | Australian Shepherd | Male | unneutered | 1 month and 30 days old | 2 lbs
I have 2 month old Australian Shepherd. I like to keep him inside during the night, but the problem is that he starts crying all night (he keeps my whole family awake).The second I go to the garage to get some puppy supplies, he follows me and wants to sleep there instead.It's currently winter, and at night the temperature is about 35 degrees Fahrenheit.My garage might be a tiny bit warmer, but it still feels cold for me.Should I insist to keep him inside?Or should I let him sleep in the garage?

If he is happy in the garage and it is safe for him to be there without being supervised (beware of antifreeze and other toxic chemicals, electrical cables etc) then i recommend creating an insulated indoor kennel in there. Styrofoam sheets, old duvets and bubble wrap can all help to insulate bedding areas
