As stated in previous responses, make it a good thing. Put his toys in or treats. Make sure that everytime you put him in there, there is something he associates with being in there that is good.
I used to put a sherpa lamp toy and a chewing bone in there with Hot Rod. I also would put him in it when he fell asleep with the door open. As he has grown, I put an actual bed that he loved in their for him to sleep in. Now he goes in at night, no problem.
Good luck. |
