all morning/ in the morning

I looked for my dog [all morning/in the morning] but couldn't find him anywhere.

What is the difference between the two? 'all morning' sounds better to me.

Thanks!

Both are grammatically correct, but they mean different things. All morning - the entire morning In the morning - a time during the morning (maybe a few minutes, maybe hours; duration is not specified)
