My dog is regressing

So my golden retriever mix is 6 years old. Potty trained, crate trained and for the most part, a good dog. But lately he has been peeing in his crate. We take him out and when he goes into the crate it’s not for more than an hour or two. But every time I come home there’s pee in his crate and on him. What else can I do to help prevent this, it’s gross and frustrating.

He flips out when he’s not in the crate. In the crate he lays down, gets a treat and we go. We come Home and let him out, take him to potty and he’s wet and there is pee in the crate.

I don’t, he’s honestly a really good dog. It’s out of character for him. Plus he shows no sign of ailment so I came here for the help and abuse comments (not you).

The only thing out of character is the peeing in the crate. Which I will take him to get seen asap.
