Answer
If he is going in his kennel at night, try tethering him on a short leash to a dog bed near your bed at night instead. This might make a difference for you. Also spend some time with him in his kennel while you watch him during the day so you can catch him trying to go in the kennel and take him out quickly and praise him when he goes outside so he gets the idea that going in the kennel is bad.
