HI, I am new to this forum. I have a 5 month old yorkie [Chewie] and am crate training him. I work full-time so he is in his crate from 7-11:30 and then 12:30 to 4:30. Is there anyone else out there crating their yorkie's all day like this? I feel guilty that he is locked up all day, then of course again at night. Also, he is pooping in his crate in the afternoon. I can't always get him to go when I come home for lunch. Any suggestions? The crate is small, even when I make it smaller it doesn't matter, he doesn't mind pooping in it.

Thanks.
