I also worry about him eating in the mornings and during our lunch hour because I don't want him to go to the bathroom in his crate. We have the smallest crate we could find, but he is so little that if he has to go, he has no problem going in his crate in a corner. I have never heard of a dog going potty in their crate!! He is fully potty-trained when he is out and about in the house...he gets our attention and runs to the door everytime he needs to go potty outside. I guess he just still has a really small bladder, and going potty in his crate will just have to be something else that he will have to grow out of.
