Puppies are best sold/adopted when they are at least 8 weeks/2 months old. At that age she must have learnt lots of dog lessons. She cries at night obviously because she is lonely, scared and lacks motherly warmth. Bro I suggest you take the puppy back to the dam at least she can enjoy a few more weeks of mumy care. Trust me, by the time you bring her home again the crying will have reduced. As for the tail docking pls contact a vet or get a knowledgable perso do it.

the crying is normal for such age and condition.

pls contact a vet for the docking or it's better you leave it as it is.

try get a good dry and can food for puppies. Feed it well with lots of clean water available.

just consult a good vet doctor.
