Crate issues

We have Bacchus's crate in the conservatory and he spends the night either in there or on "his" part of the sofa.  The OH has mentioned getting rid of the crate but he uses it a lot for naps etc. and seems to be attached to it.
Has anyone experienced problems when dispensing with their crate....insecurity,anxiety etc.??

Sorry Rodger I haven't any personal experience with stopping crate use, one of the the reasons I continue is we go away quite a bit and darcy comes too so we just take darcy's crate with us as its her safe haven, if he likes it in there there then I see no reason not to keep things as they are

we were just speaking about this yesterday on another post Roger

I think on balance if you have the room to leave it there and let him use it as and when , then if long term he just takes a dislike to it and stops using it you could just take it away then

It does seem a pity to take it away as he is obviously comfortable in it. Space isn't at a premium but you know what wives are like. ( sorry ladies)
