Kersey can probably feel the anxiety and stress. Things are happening that makes her feel insecure. (Do I sound like a pet psychic?? LOL) Are you packing? Who knows, maybe her first family was moving, too, and dumped her. Dogs know when things are not normal. The minute I bring out the suitcases from the basement, Killian gets clingy and mopey. Just the fact that you can't spend as much time with her can make her uneasy. After all, she did end up at a shelter.
In this case, crates are a good thing. In fact, the rescue group my parents got their dog from highly recommend crating. (But he broke out of the crate and tore down the drapes and blinds-oops!) Mom needed new blinds and drapes, anyways, she says.... Now the crate is repaired and his escape route has been secured! LOL He has access to the crate (open door) whenever he wants (and he does like it), but when they leave, they close the door. They take him almost everywhere they go anyways, so he's not in there very often!
Good luck and wear the little girl out at the park. A tired pup, is a good pup.
