Crate Training
While there has been quite a bit of controversy surrounding whether to crate train or not, crating essentially mimics a dog's natural instinct

Eating and crate training
"tell my new owners to smack the top of the crate and say "'quiet'" in a loud, firm voice. The puppies don't like to hear the loud noise of the crate being banged"
This is REALLY bad advice. NEVER punish a dog while he is IN his crate. You do not want to create a negative association with the crate. By doing what this person suggests, you can create a dog who loathes being in his crate and may even wet his crate which would be the exact opposite of what you want if you wish to crate train a dog! The best way to stop a dog from whinning and barking is reward the behavior you DO want, and like the other person said, IGNORE, the behavior you DON't want. So do not go to your dog when he is whinning! If you have a clicker handy, you can use it to mark the moment the dog is quite! Click you clicker when the dog isn't making noise - even if it is just for a brief second - try to catch that brief second. Click your clicker then go over to your dog and toss a cookie or really great treat into the crate and tell your dog how wonderful he is. Then walk away and wait again. As long as your dog is making noise you are to INGORE him. Click your clicker again when he is quite and go over to him and give him another cookie. YOu want him to learn that not making noise brings him to you, making noise keeps you away.

I need some help Crate Trainng my new rescue dog Juniper!
Hi everyone, My name is Cathy and I recently (last monday) adopted a rescued dog. Being that it was Monday and My husband and I both work, we had to leave her at the house. I decided I didn't want to put her in the crate because I saw how she reacted to it when i opened the door and I didn't quite know the things she may have been put through.
I tried baby gating her in the kitchen, in the spare bedroom, putting her crate in front of the hallway to block her in the kitchen, and she got out every time. I do have another dog who has free reign of the house, but he is 2. After she chewed through the refrigerator cord (still wondering how she even got to it) and escaped every alternative spot for her to go, i had to put her in her crate.
She's only left alone 4 hours at a time, I go home for lunch every day to check on her, let her out and play with her. She hates to go into the crate. I have given her a kong, treats, food, bones, toys, I've even gotten in the cage, my other dog has gotten in the cage and she still won't go in. I don't want her to be afraid of it, but she has to be in it. We worked with her last weekend and it didn't seem to make a difference. I'm at a loss for ideas
Thank you,
Cathy
