Thanks guys. Sorry about the caps Doc. Wasn't paying much attention. I really don't mind keeping him in the kennel. I have a 10' x12'. My dog is a great dog. He works hard and does everything that I expect out of him.I work him daily. He has alot of energy. But when I put him up it's like he wants to sull up. Its like he forgets what we just did. Which I guess is understandable. I was just curious of other ways. Anyone ever kept their dog inside or will that ruin him altogether? (Dont think the wife would go for it though)
