Wetting the crate

I have a male pug that is 2 years old. He is very much a "people person". My problem is this...when we leave and come home before we can get in the door he's clawed the walls and the door because he's so excited to see us. I've had to repaint and replace a doorframe. I purchased a crate for him to stay in when we are gone. I put a blanket in there for him to lay on but he's urinating in the crate. It doesn't matter if we're only gone 10 minutes....when we get back his crate is sopping. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm desperate!
