I thought about it, but I’m concerned about his inability to get along with their Aussie. I have several dogs here… including Aussies.
Yeah, I figure it's his house, so I'm giving him some grace and leeway. I think it's surprising he's not more defensive against her (the Aussie), given that she (and we) just moved in on him. It's not continuous, they generally have it out about once a day... No blood or injuries, just growling and posturing. No sign of aggression toward the kids. He's giving the armadillos heck, though. I've been impressed. I may be looking for another just like him, but younger, that can integrate into the family.

He probably just needs a little more time.
