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.

Dogs are sometimes complicated..you have to think...do I spend enough timre with her??....Do I need to give her a better environment??....Well all I can say is that maybe the w your training her is not right ...do you reward her enough??....Spend alot of time withher and when you go and take her out to poo make sure you have some fun with ehr a little because maybe she will enjoy being outside and get used to the fact that when you go outside with her she'll have some play time and get rewarded!...I know alot about dogs and puppies so if you need help just e-mail me =]

If your dog is going in your house you need to keep her outside at all times if you bring her in the house at night make sure she goes before she comes in. I've been doing this to my dog ever since I got him. It might work for you.

when i dogsat my neighbors dog for like 2 weeks she'd go in the house for the first couple of days just because she was mad at them for leaving. can you think of a reason your dog would be mad at you? if you can't, then it really could be a medical condition.

Sometimes the scent left behind from your dogs earlier accidents will make her think it is ok to continue to do so.

Does she go inside the house when you're home, away or both?

Is there something different in your routine? Are you working longer hours? Not taking her on walks? It may just be a sign that she's mad at you.
