Well,
remember he's been IN a crate/cage for many days...
NOT a "new" experience for him.
If you're going to "try" the crate - better consider
doing it TONIGHT - while the cage/crate experience is still
"fresh" in Doc's mind.

Spending the overnight period IN the crate will both keep him
out of trouble around the House;
AND keep him out of any possible "squabbles" with Bud & Tash.

(Not to mention any possible "poddy problems" that might come up!)
