[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 224827, member: 84"] The only way I can bring him inside for any length of time is by putting him in the large dog crate I have for him. If I were to bring him in everynight, I'd have to bathe him every night be cause the yard is so darn mucky right now. And while Rowdy is fairly cooperative with bathing, I'd doubt he'd tolerate it every night. lol I use the inside crate for him when it's super cold. I keep him in the kitchen on those nights. I can't simply gate him into a room because the gate wouldn't stop him. He'd go right over it. Which is why he has a 6 foot kennel outside. sigh If Aubrey wasn't living here, I'd consider just bringing him inside period. He house trained himself years ago. But Betsy won't leave him alone and the dogs running around, well...Aubrey would probably get plowed over all the time. With the two largish girls inside it's crowded. If Rowdy was in too, it would be even more so. He's not a small dog. We've got Darrin's birthday party this afternoon. After that, I'm making husband go with me to look at chicken wire and get some straw. I've got to get something set up for him this weekend. We have a storm supposed to be on the way. I'll also have to pick up a couple of tarps for the top of his kennel. The wind ripped the old ones away yesterday. Oh.......just had an idea. I wonder what that heavy wire garden fencing costs?? I could wrap and attach that around the bottom of the kennel to make sure he can't get thru any weak spots. If it's not too expensive. This is my Hero guy. He doesn't deserve to be miserable. I've got to come up with something. :( [/QUOTE]
