Thanks guys, after thinking about it today I think that it may be because she wanted to be near me? Normally, I am in bed that early in the morning. Also, hubby does all the things with her real early (6am) and then he puts her in the crate no problem before he leaves for work (8am) except for the past two mornings when she was in the bedroom near me when it was time for her to go into her crate.

I work out of my home and am here with her all day. She is mostly out of her crate except if I have to run a errand or for a nap. She gets plenty of training, walks, playing in the yard and inside the house with me and our other dogs. She has been very good with going in the crate, she even goes inside for a nap by herself at times.

When it's time for her to go in her crate I tell her "crate" and she goes in and sits down. I tell her to lay down and then give her treats. Hubby doesn't do things this way so that may have something to do with it to? He just picks her up and puts her in her crate, usually there are no problems except for the past two mornings.
