This is exactly one of the reasons I hate crates. To me the thought of my dog sitting locked in a cage wanting to go but being unable to is just unthinkable. I will never ever get why people think leaving a dog shut in a crate to force them to wait to do what comes naturally is a good thing.
Imagine waking in the night wanting a wee and your hubby holding you so you can't get to the loo, obviously you won't want to go in your bed so you'd just have to suffer...
Like I said I just don't get it???
