He is no longer crying at night and since I placed him on the leash at the foot of the bed all accidents have stopped. I don't know how it helps but it did. My neighbor raised Great D's and it worked for them for years. Next week he will be off the leash at night for good. Just his blankets and bedding on the floor next to the bed. It's hard for me to put any of my animals in a crate/cage. He treats an area in my office as a Den. Thanks for the replies.
