I have a 13 year old that he will sleep in his lap. He is an alpha and that's the problem for us. He walked in the other day and peed in my wife then turned and peed on the pups we are selling. Burned his bridges with my wife. He's been an outside dog for the past two months. I just shipped in a white lab pup and he isn't taking to her either. Since I will never breed him and I don't really want to go through another $25,000 divorce, it's time for him to go. Whoever wants him can come down and I will work with them for an hour or so and show him my commands hand signals etc. Keep him for a month and if it doesn't work out, bring him back for a full refund. I just really want him to go to a person who is going to hunt him. You have no idea how much this dog loves to hunt.
