DOG TRAINING ADVICE SOUGHT

[Elizabeth Savage Kamke <EKSK476@AOL.COM>]

HelP!  I know this isn't a library question,  but I am desperate to try and
solve this problem with my dog. My daughter took in a rescued abused pit
bull, and he is truly one of the most wonderful dogs I have ever had.  What a
shifted paradigm.  I also have a lab mix, male, so this makes two males in
the house.
our pit bull never was let out and was beaten into the corner most of the
time.
The crazy thing is, he is peeing all over the house, in the weirdest places,
and sneaking into the darkest recesses of our big house to poop.  Yuk.  he's
a year and a half old.  We are all totally in love with this dog, but this
peeing pooping everywhere is disgusting.  We tried crating him, and he
seriously can bend the really strong metal and snap the door open.  He can
leap over the fences in our back yard, so i can't just leave him out.  i
guess I'm just praying that someone will answer me back and tell me that
there is hope, and not to give up.  I can't bear to give him away.
Sorry about this off list topic, but I am considering this to be a reference
question.
Please answer off list.  thanks.
