DWARF FORTRESS

Okay I'm having trouble taming war animals. I've got a kennel, I've got a recent immigrant with mucho skills in all the animal training/care/hunting/ etc. areas. But when I go to the kennel and place the train war dog command (which from what I can understand is the command for all animals) it tells me that there are no available animals. The thing is is that I have stray dogs out the wahzoo, and I just traded for a couple of bears and some other animals from the elves. Now those cages are just chillin on the trading platform (along with the bins full of goods that I ended up not trading) and I don't seem to have access to any of them. Shiggity schwat do I do? (for the record I've also tried the other options, and every one of them says that there are no available animals)

Man, Stonesense is so great.

Also, I find both the tilesets that are not Mayday better in some ways but crappy in other ways.  Phoebus looks ok but the text looks awful to me.  Ironhand looks pretty polished, but again I am not sure about the text, and I don't like some of the artistic decisions made, such as the look of constructed walls and the silkiness(?) of liquids.   If not for a few minor-seeming things like that I'd prob want to use it a lot more than I do now.  As it stands I am not sure which I prefer!

snalin:
I've only tried Mayday and Phoebus, and while Mayday has better models, the fact that Phoebus shows water as numbers representing how deep the water is pretty damn practical. Of course, mayday shows you which way the water is moving, which you don't need that often, but it's needed when you want to do things like walling off a river or something like that.

Have you tried the wiki, boro? From what I can see, you'll have to uncage the animals before you can train them. That means unassigning the animals from the cages. If that doesn't help, I'm blank.

Boro_Bandito:
Yeah but I don't seem to have access to the cages, which are left on the trading post. Its not actually showing them at all, same goes for the bins of finely made rock crafts that I ended up not needing for trade.

And then there's the dogs, which are just running around everywhere uncaged. I know I've got at least 5 adult strays that are untrained, none of them are available apparently. I've read the wiki article and a step-by-step guide for how to do it, apparently the rules for doing things have changed or something.
