Hi everyone,
Thanks for the warm wishes and advice.
I do have an exercise pen. He went in there and used the pee pad right after I took him outside. lol I was just happy that he willingly went in there and is seeming to know it's his.
I ended up going to Petsmart and getting a kitten harness, it fits perfectly. Thanks for telling me about that. I also got him a bell, he got stepped on earlier.

I'm not trying to make him into a cat, but hey, whatever works.
I finally saw him pee! lol Never thought I'd get so excited about poop and pee. I took him outside this morning from his crate and he went immediately! Yea, Gizmo!!! I was so proud!
I think we're getting a hang of it.
