Its just the peeing the crate thats the problem now. He doesn't seem to mind sitting in it. I am going to get a blanket for him that won't easilly absorb liquid and see if that deters him. He doesn't play with toys in his crate, however he does eat treats there. I will just persevere with the...

Ok, got an update on this issue.... I have tried the crate again during the night for a few nights. Jack has peed it every night. Its not as if he can lie somewhere else coz the crate is not big enough so he has to lie in it. The next few days i brought his bed (not the crate) into my room...
