I was on another site and came across this. The animal "protectors" would not like this, but this is the reality of nature.

Okay, Hair of the Dog, that 150 pound dog is laying at my feet as I type this. But he can't stay in all night.

I am probably prolonging his agony by giving him these brief moments of comfort at my feet in my warm home.

He is a BIG dog, and he seems to like my Buffalo Springfield music :)

I'm going to play some Jackson Browne CDs for him next.

Glad to hear it, hope he didn't have any problems you couldn't catch before they happened. Hopefully, it'll get better with time and eventually he'll be trustworthy. I do believe, especially if he's been housebroken before, that he's just over-excited in a new place and that will decrease when he learns the rules. Even if he's not been housetrained well before, it's not hard to teach, I don't care how old he is. Just keep an eye, and a leash on him until he gets it. Sorry for the attitude last night, but I sensed I was getting some from you. Not sure what you wanted from me if not advice to solve the problem....
