    Dog pooping In house
    I have a 1 1/2 year old border collie mix. We resently move and he won't stop pooping in the house. I'm home with him all day and he goes out every hour or so. Any advice to get him to stop?

    Put him in a crate like you would a puppy. He is just being naughty and is probably stressed from the move. Re-establish your rules and where he is allowed to go potty.

    If you don't have a crate, than tie him to you. Let him earn his freedoms.

    Try the crate first

    Try this second... He is unfamiliar with his new house and a backyard that has yet to smell like him or any other dog. You can try putting his or letting another dogs business in the backyard so when you take him outside to go to the washroom he might smell it and think this is where I should go to the washroom! When we take dogs to the park... that usually works in them going to the washroom so thought it might work in your own backyard!
