Not necessarily.It is not uncommon for puppies to do this. Dogs are pack animals, meaning they naturally hunt, eat, rest and sleep in packs. So when a puppy is left to sleep alone, they will get upset. This will occur for a few weeks after getting a new puppy until it learns to accept it. How long that takes depends on the puppy.


Giving the puppy a mate will likely help. You could also try leaving a cuddly toy or a warm clothing item that has your scent on it.
