Her recall is going well lol

and a happy thing for sure.

 

only issue we got really is she is a piddler. Keeps piddling in her bed area in the run and in her crate in house at night though not as much. I am thinking maybe because her run is mostly wet this time of year maybe that is not helping. Its roofed but the yard is all ways wet in this weather. Her bed end then is nice and warm and dry as its raised. Thinking I might devise some sort of big tray in her run full of saw dust maybe that would encourage her. She shites in the right place fine. Tried boxing off the bed section small and now got blue barrel full of straw in there just so I can keep it clean easier

make her a box/barrel she can't stand up in... should stop her pissing in her bed

Must be a collie grey thing mine still pisses in his bed occasionally now an it pisses me off as he’s 3.5 years old

I find that collie/Grey's learn some things easy and other basic things they seem to learn really late? 

My current half cross was brilliant at recall before he was housetrained

Hope he gets summat he likes, best think I ever done was sacrifice a bit speed and go back to the good ole half cross, I’d not swap this kelpie cross for nowt, nowhere near best dog I ever had but by far best dogs I could have now

Are the kelpie crosses less intense in their behaviour than border collie crosses? (talking ones with something like half herder blood)
