Thanks, and I'll try looking at that link when the little varmint sleeps. Geez, if I had that much motion in me, I could conquer the World.

You might try a crate.

We put our new puppy in one from the day we got him at 7 weeks, and he loves it. Dogs never soil their crates unless they are really little, or get the runs, because they know it's their bedroom. He's got a blanket and a toy in there, at when we go to bed now, I just tell him it's time for bed, walk to the crate, and say "in". He happily runs in, and lies down for the night.

Here he is at 7 weeks

What a handsome ( not to mention cute as a button ) little fella!

I'll keep the crate in mind- we think he's runny from excitement, the trip in the truck, and a change in food. If not, I'll try it.
