Toilet Training For Outisde Puppies

We have two 7 week old border collies. We are trying to spend a lot of time outside with them at the moment. I can suggest something that worked for us.

1. Try to create something to differentiate the spot you want them to do their business from the rest of the lawn/garden etc. For example, we put some lawn clippings and raked up leaves in a shady spot in the corner. They seem to now have developed a preference for the crunchy leaves when they go poo.

2. When you are outside and they start to give the signals (sniffing in circles, distracted) that they need to go; pick them up and take them to the spot. If they walk away, we just quietly picked them up and put them back in the spot.

3. If they poo in any other spot, scoop it up and put it in the spot.

This has worked fairly well for us - but I have to say when it comes to peeing they tend to just do it anyway on the lawn.
