[LIL MIS' MAGIC]

I crate my new male Silky at night and we have luckily never had any problems with him with that, but I can understand how hard it must be. Those first few weeks are so hard and tiring, you really need to try and stick with it so your little one will learn what you want from them.

Another thing you can try is you can get an Xpen and let him sleep him there, that way he is not in a crate (if he is afraid of a small area) all the time. I would be his crate in the Xpen with the door open so he can easily go in and out and he should soon learn that the crate is his "home" and grow to love it.

I hope you find something that will work for you!!
