Bassett Hound Puppy Crate Regression

I have a 6 month old Bassett Hound who has never LOVED her crate, but generally goes in with a little whining initially. She even got to the point that she was taking naps in it on her own accord.

Unfortunately we moved last week and she’s a little discombobulated in general by the new surroundings. However the real issue is that she is freaking out in the crate now. I’ve left there three times and I come back and hear her barking innocently even 90 minutes after she been in there. She over turns water somehow gets the crate to literally move across the floor and…most upsetting she’s had two accidents (#2s) which hasn’t happened since her very first time.

Any advice on what to do? I make it a really calm experience to put her in the crate. Leave toys. Full a Kong with kibble and peanut butter and even turn on “calming pet music” from AppleMusic.

I was thinking about moving the crate into me bedroom since she’s comfortable there…but it’s also carpeted so if she continues to have accidents it’s soil that. Really at a loss and would welcome any suggestions.
