Hunter is just a wee pup, be mindfull of that. I don't think anyone can accurately estimate how long your dog will bark, howl, cry, etc... weeks, months... it really depends on the training you put in, the relationship you build, your routine, and what he learns about the howling.
can you tether Hunter to you while you clean? (not for vacuuming/mopping, but picking up, doing dishes, etc.. )
as for howling... I have a basenji... they sound freakishly like human babies when they cry. so much so that when I first got Tucker at 8wks, we crated him at dinner time (because I can't eat and chase a pup around the house)....I dropped my fork and RAN to my livingroom when he cried... sounded like an infant (and i don't have a baby! scared me!) but that was the one and only time I went running to the rescue for the screaming... as you're doing, I waited for that split second of calm, then he was let out to have fun. He got it fairly quickly - but at 9 wks, he did make a good amount of noise.
