OK To me it sounds like you need to have way more disapline with him.
When you put him in the kennel.. are you leaving? is he going to bed?? Does he have run of the house? You need to watch hin 24/7 if he isnt potty trained yet. He is only 8 mo so I highly doubt he is potty trained. Dont let him outside without a leash and harness on, something like that can go wrong really fast esp with crossing a street??? thats not good. If he doesnt listen to you.. why would you let him off leash in your front yard? Does he ever get to play with other dogs? dog parks? walks? anything? Sounds like you need a lot of help with him. You came to the right place. I hope you take it all in and really work with him. He will get better, with everything it takes time and effort
