Thanks..and I'm gonna go ahead and ask my ? here in Hopes that someone can help.

Most of you know that I do speak Dog, MOST times...but...
We are keeping our Grand dog, Max, who is VERY tightly bonded with his 'dad'.
Max and very very seldom have problems, but he does like to go Walkabout....we have fixed every escape hatch he comes up with but he always finds another...

I think that he leaves to look for his Dad, whom he will NOT find...Dad is 300+ miles away...any ideas how to convince him to stay here??? Cause he KNOWS it's NOT Home...

PS...he is never in any hurry, even if gone 2 hours he is usually within 3 blocks of here...he has to take time to read the newspapers.
