Some like toys, some like treats. You know your girl best. Decide which motivates her the best. All ages can be trained.
Give her a reason to want to run in there. Put something in there like a kong with p-nut butter inside. A favorite chew toy. Regardless, may sure you acknowledge the command "inside" or whatever you say. Then reward by giving her the reward
Put something in there she wants. Reward her for going in there.
Bait her= give her treats to con her in it. When she goes in, give her the treat. Treats are only to be used for training. Make sure they are well sought after treats to expect her to work hard for them. Make it a game to her at the same time, "yipeey, you win" reward, reward, reward. Sooner or later she'll go in there expecting a reward.
