We are moving back home...
And I can't wait but also worried. It's been 9 years. I've got two more things to worry about. Both are about my dad's dog. The thing is after my mum died,my dad ended up in hospital and their rescue dog was moving from friend to friend. We decided that my dad will come to live with us for a bit so he can recover. Now,his dog after all the bad things he started to wee in my dad's flat. That's first thing I'm worry about. But the biger worry is Debo,who now kind of chooses who he likes. Well they met before, Debo was 5mnth then, my dad's dog about 4. And they played fine,best buddies. But you could see that Debo had the upper hand. So I worry that Debo won't accept him and I'll have to ask my dad to move out. I don't want to put to much on Debo and force the dogs to accept each others. I thinkg will have to see how it goes.

Re: We are moving back home...
My dad walks him often because he doesn't have any thing else to do. He said he can take him for a wee at 9pm and wake up at 7 and find kitchen floor cover in wee. Same at day time, he can take him out before he leaves and when he's back same thing. Could it be due stress,like the dog thinks my dad would leave him again?

It could well be stress/anxiety. Hopefully it will improve as time goes on.
As to Debo and him getting along, all you can do is wait & see. I wouldn't leave them alone together at all, though.

Just take the reintroduction slowly as if it was the first time and you should hopefully have no problems
