Crate training can defiantly be worth it providing it is done responsible. Eg only use the crate when you cannot supervise him.
Must not restrict water
and if he is in their initally, take him out ever 30mintues!
YES! YES YES Hahaha I have had about 7 dogs over the last 15 years or so and every single dog whether a rescue or a puppy I have crate trained and I truly believe in it. My sister is having a hard time with her new puppy cocker spaniel and I told her about crate training and it has made a tremendous difference. It has been two weeks and now ‘Bunny’ that’s what puppy’s name is haha well now she goes to sit quietly by the door waiting to go out. She has only had a few accidents over the last few weeks. I highly recommend crate training.
hi apart from crate training, there’s few other good methods as well… found a good source for you:

Dogs are den animals, and a crate is simulating a den. It’s a safe place for your dog and when introduced to one at a young age, they will continue to use it their whole life.
Never use a den (crate) for punishment. Feed the dog in his crate, put him there with lots of toys when you can’t watch him,until you housebreak him. My crates are left open at all times now, and you will invariably find a dog or two sleeping in a crate at my house.
Here is a simply way to potty train your dog using a crate;

Yes! It works extremely well! I own 2 Siberian huskies but have trained 5! I have crate trained all of them and it helps big time at shows! So yes crate training is very useful and very good!
