Why does my fully house trained dog poop in the house?
I have a three year old border collie. She is fully house trained and never went to the bathroom in the house until a month ago. I did some research and i found that if you put the dog in a kennel and only let them out for potty breaks and to eat/drink it eliminates the chance for them to go anywhere but outside. Well, I have been "kennel training" her for two weeks now and she still goes in the house! Should I kennel train her longer? Could it be a medical condition? Or does she just like to tick me off? Any help would be much appreciated!
We have been remodeling our unfinished basement. It started shortly after remodeling began. She is outside often and my kids are home most of the day.
She usually goes inside when we are home. When we leave she is outside in our fenced in backyard. And usually within 30 minutes of coming inside the house she goes.
