Did you slowly introduce her to her crate or did you just give her a treat for getting in and that was that?

 

if she knows your roomate is home she will bark for attention. she must learn that barking will not get her attention. Make sure your roomate doesnt give in to her barking when you are gone or will be difficult to break this habit. My puppy used to do this and one of the roomates would usually give in to him. it was very hard to get everyone on board with "ignoring" him, but that should fix it, eventually. Be patient : )

 

She also has her food and water. She simply does not like to be alone and I do not know what to do to stop the barking any more. My room mate has decided that she is just going to let her out when she is barking so she can sleep and I know that is bad but do I really have any other options?

Sounds as if the dogs BASIC needs are being met. I wonder though...does your roomie think that by just "giving up" on the pup in the kennel is REALLY going to be the BEST option for how the pup handles the future?? Seems as if the roomie is a tad bit "sleepy", &, is in NO condition to help train a young pup!! *I forsee BAD things coming your way*...Perhaps I am wrong (I hope)...but, still, just for trainings sake..letting a whining dogout of a kennel to do NOTHING CONSTRUCTIVE?? = pup getting its way DUE to whining, &, pup is now in "control"..due to sleepy persons perspective... GAH!! I say this,-let the pup settle, make sure it doesn't have to potty, give the pup a chew, & go from there...NEVER let the pup out if the pup is going bananas! Just wait a few seconds or more for the up to settle & calm down...THEN, reward by opening the door!
