In my experience, not an expert here, I would suggest making sure your crate is the correct size for your puppy. Or, if your crate is a large crate, to be used at a later date when your puppy is an adult dog, then make that crate smaller to fit the puppy at it's current size. Example: when we brought Kahlua home for the first time, we put her in the crate at night. We have a fairly medium sized wire crate for her to adjust to as she grows to be an adult dog. We had already adjusted the crate by putting a flat cardboard folded box up against a plastic box container to fit her current size with plenty of bedding of course. As she gets bigger, I remove the plastic box container and the flat cardboard folded box to adjust to her current size. At this time she fits perfect in the crate without any adjustments. Hopefully this helps. Good luck!
