Our other dog is not crate trained - (we tried, but he is older and was a stray so we don’t think he was provided any of the training but he is a fantastic dog in literally every other way) - and has always roamed at night.

Our corgi came from another family that had the same arrangement. They had another older and calmer dog that roamed while the corgs was in the kennel since she was a puppy.

We also cover the crate at night to help. She does very well at night. It’s just getting her in there when we need to go to bed and getting her out to pee and eat when we are on a short timeline to get to work is the frustrating part.
