Hi Marsha thanks for the info I it never even crossed my mind to treat him like a puppy!
I am in the process of getting stuff together to "start over" with him.

welcome to the group and congrats on your new furbaby. Either he has never been housebroken in the first place or else the change of environment has thrown him off or caused him to go around marking. Either way, it is annoying isn't it?First thing to remember is that to properly housebreak him is gonna take time and patience. It isn't gonna happen over night. Regardless of WHY he is doing it, you need to start all over just as you would a pup. Confine him to a small area, preferably a crate, when he can not be supervised. When he is out and about, the first sign of looking for a place to potty, give a stern NO and take him to where you want him to go. Stay there until he does go. I have stood in one spot for a half hour before! When he does go in the right place, praise like there's no tomorrow!!Time and patience....time and patience.

Cleveland,Ohio. I rescued my little guy from a abusive family. He is
about 6-7 y/o. He is doing great with my other dogs and my children.
But he has a problem going in the house. Even after bringing him in
from outside he still will find a spot and do his thing. My hubby is
getting sick of it and wants him gone...of course the rest of us don't
want THAT. Any suggestions would be greatful.
I don't know how to get pictures on the computer yet, that is still
too new to me too! But he is as cute as all the ones I have looked at
in this group! Aren't we all just sooooooo lucky!
Thanks in advance!
Shar
