You might find that a front clip harness is a better idea. What happens when the dog pulls is that he just turns himself round to face you so gets nowhere. If you are going to get a headcollar, a dogmatic is a better idea as it does not cut in or ride up.

He should never be put in his crate for being naughty. His crate is his own special place, where he needs to want to go for some peace and quiet. If he goes in it for doing something you don't like, he is going to be confused.

Better to put him in another room with a babygate across.
