Awww, poor puppy. It's not being bad on purpose. Just use the crate and both you and the dog can be happy. A dog used to going into a crate learns a sense of security when inside. We have one in our living room we never lock or use anymore but if we take it out our one dog searches for it. He goes inside to sleep or get away from our big dog but it's not needed and he comes and goes as he pleases.
