@tanza he isn't in a crate with any other dog. He hasn't gone in the house or on furniture in months. As I said I am pretty sure he marking his territory. He didn't do it anymore once he he figured out that she was going to be there every day.
Have you tried purchasing a coat for little Nimbus? My little Basenji girl had the same issue when we first rescued her so I purchased a coat for her which helped her to feel less intimidated with the weather. Best wishes!
