You can even find a Doggie Daycare that also provides training. Then, Noba can play until tired and also learn manners.

As far as the peeing goes, my understanding is that it takes several weeks for the testosterone to work out of a dog's system. He's still marking. What are you doing when he pees? What is your reaction to it?
Doggie daycare is something that I've thought about, but all the ones in my area have bad reputations... they allow aggressive dogs with docile dogs. The better ones are in Seattle which is over an hour away... but I will look into something like that!

He never marked the house before he was neutered, so it's new behavior. Unfortunately I don't catch him peeing, it happens when I'm not looking and I find it a few minutes later, so scolding him is not an option... ????? Any advice????

He's a great dog when he has adequate exercise... the peeing is the most frustrating thing for me. I live with three cats, and they just don't wanna play like he does... he doesn't understand that...
