I'm envious your little guy sleeps in his crate. I wish Darla would but she just will not. She will bark and whine all night if she's in her crate. DBF will not allow it and that is with her in our room. But she is fine if she's out of the crate. She has a soft bed next to my side she will sleep on if she's not in bed with us. But she does get up to go potty or poo. Bad thing is she doesnt tell me
