[S/V Antares]

Tao, I think you are correct on the Alpha Dog. We have since cleaned the area and have a piece of astro turff and rubbed it in the back yard of the house to give it some of here scent. I the dog loves the boat and hangs out on the foredeck. I have heard it may be that this is like a den and she will not "mark" too close. My Vet buddy says it will likely sort itself out and she will find a spot if we just stop trying.

JDoe71, This took years or practice. No manual, self taught. John Prine said it best...
