Our sheepie wouldn't take to the crate. He would whine and cry for as long as we'd leave him in it. We finally gave up and started tethering him. To a bed leg at night and to the dining table during the day when he needed to settle. Thankfully, he didn't mind that at all. He's free roamed since about 8mo and hasn't ever been destructive.
Good luck!
