Never beat or scold a Border Collie puppy, otherwise it will be afraid and make it more messy. If beating and scolding makes the dog afraid to go to the toilet, it is what we often call a vicious cycle. The Border Collie puppy doesn't know how to urinate or defecate because no one tells it the right place and guidance.
2. It is very important to induce dogs
Training Border Collies to learn to urinate and defecate at designated spots. Mainly through induction. For example, lay a piece of newspaper on the ground, and when the Border Collie is eating or getting up in the morning, take it to a designated place, such as next to the newspaper, then point to the newspaper, and then put it on top to tell the Border Collie that it should be here. Pee. At this time, don't be too specific about induction agents or the like, as they generally don't work very well.
The effect will definitely not be good in the early stage, because the Border Collie dog has no idea what you want it to do, but you must insist on doing more. Because the dog does it a few times, it will occasionally get it right once or twice, that is, it learns to urinate and defecate in the place you designated.
At this time, you must give it a reward and praise it greatly, such as "Border Collie, you are awesome" or something, and then feed it a small piece of meat, or biscuits or something. It is best to give it a snack that it likes and that you don’t give it often. Slowly, through conditioned reflex, the dog learns to only go to the designated place to pee.
3. Training Border Collies to use toilet time
This kind of training is best started with Border Collie puppies. If you want your puppy to get used to going to the bathroom outside, it should generally start when it is 4-5 months old. But once the border collie develops the habit of going out to use the toilet, the dog owner cannot be lazy. He must insist on accompanying the dog to go out to relieve himself, rain or shine, otherwise it will be easy to waste all his efforts. Since Border Collie puppies have poor ability to control their own defecation before they are 3 to 4 months old, they will urinate everywhere after their bladder is filled with urine, or when they encounter some interference or stimulation. Normally, puppies need to urinate 10 to 20 times a day and defecate about 4 to 5 times a day.
