Why is my puppy trembling when petted and barking all night?

Hi.. My Jack Russell Puppy Trembles when you pet him or pick him up and cuddle him, is it fear or excitement? For how long will he continue to whine and bark at night, when he is locked up in the conservatory. Thanks Frank

Hi Frank, it is too difficult for me to tell you which it is without seeing what he is doing myself. I suggest you consult with a professional dog trainer. They will be able to give you the best information as to what is going on and how you should handle it. Best wishes.
