Others may have additional suggestions but, provided the dog is not sick, here's what I would do.

First off, why is he eating his food in his crate? and how many hours is he in that crate per day?

Crate issues aside, here's what I would do.

Put food out for 15 minutes. If dooger doesn't eat it, put it away out of sight until the next mealtime. After 1 or 2 missed meals, dooger will get the message and this behaviour will likely change.

Be curious to hear any other suggestions and good luck!
