It also helped when I spoke with my Mom last night. My parents kept Ozzy for a few times when we went to visit Hubby's mom and step-father (he did not want dogs in his house). Mom assured me that after a few hours, Ozzy settled in just fine. Of course, it will be a little crazier at cousin's house, but Ozzy seems to love it when something is going on all the time.
Ozzy will be 7 in December, and he is starting to sport a graying chin. He is still very active and playful, and I have yet to figure out what he finds in the yard to roll in. I've looked and cannot see anything, and whatever he rolls in, does not make him stink.
Anyway, thanks for all the opions and support.
