    Dar this one is tricky. Yeah you could wrap him up but that won't do much good long term. I've had a lot of success with our stores herbal formulas and some of the brands of flower essences we carry. Hank sucks with moving and spent the first few weeks in our new place attacking one of the weaker, but unfortunately poorly socialized and stupid, dogs in our house. Yeah he didn't listen to a lick of doggy body language but it was overkill. I put him on this for the course of the bottle and it worked wonders. He still beats on the little dork but only when it's really called for. Now he's just teaching him dog rules, not being a shameless jerk.

    Here are some articles on flower essences.

    He's probably going through a lot adjusting, even if he isn't showing obvious signs of stress.

    These might be some good ones, depending on what exactly is going on:

    If you'd like PM me and I can give you a coupon code. Also, our customer service department rocks so if you have more questions call and try to talk to Sara. That gal knows her stuff.

    Thanks guys. I don't think this is a case of him not being abot to hold it. I work from home so I'm here to let them out frequently. It's more clearly a case of marking his territory and trying to establish dominance.

    There have been no incidents in the last 2 days as he is getting used to the routine around here. Crating is getting better but he still will not go voluntarily into a crate. I think the vet said it best - he's got a sassy streak! I'm thinking it's the red hair cuz my son has the same thing, lol.

    Sundial - I put him in my room last night. He only threw a fit for about 45 minutes but everytime I moved in bed he started crying. I think I will continue to let him spend some time cuddling with my son in his bed when I tuck my son in, and put him in my room in his crate when I go to bed. Now all we need is for the snow/sleet to stop so we can all go for a walk!

    Lisa - I think it's great you released the salamander and even better you're infamous for riding your bike! Btw, I loved the pix of you and your daughters! It looks like you had a great visit.

    Unhappy R.I.P. Tasha

    My dear little Queen-of-Quite-a-Lot, Miss Tasha, has gone to the bridge today. DH and I were at her side, stroking her, comforting her (as best we could), and crying lots. We suspect it was kidney failure.

    I adopted Tasha from the House Rabbit Society in October 2000 to keep my Noah company. She was always a thinker....she'd give you this "look" - and you know she was turning things over in that little bunny brain of hers. And she was always ready to give kisses: She was such a kisser. She loved bananas, cilantro, your undivided attention, and a good run around the couch. She didn't like slippery floors (hardwood) or stairs.

    Oh, but I am going to miss that little girl.
