DOG TIME OUT CRATE UPDATE

Eventually, he decided it’s safe to come out. I open the crate then just ignore him and go about some morning routines. What helped him is dissociating those two things. He hates to be picked up, so he came to associate leaving the crate with being picked up. This reluctance started because he was unable to go down the stairs as a young puppy, so I needed to carry him.

My puppy doesn’t want to leave his crate in the morning also. You may need to work on making outside a less stressful place to be as a primary goal. It sounds like your pup doesn’t want to go outside and may be fearful of being outside.
