I have a border collie puppy named Andy. He's constantly stealing junk from my neighbors' yard and bringing over to my house and making a mess. Anything and everything that he finds, he plays with it out in the yard for a while, then leaves it there. Is there anything I can do to make him stop doing that?

Border Collies need lots of activity to keep themselves happy. Are you providing him with enough exercise and things to do in your yard.? Very smart dogs. start training him. Give him something else to 'WORK' at.

you can just tell him to stop doing that by little shouting at him its not realy mean to do that to a dog . it do helps the dog to understand not bring something and or mess up . we do that to our dogs and its help them alot . its like youre trainning youre dog something good thing.also you should watch the dog when ever he s out side and if you dont have a fence to keep him away from beinging near by youre neighbor yard . you can go get a small play pen to keep him stay put and you can use it for indoor and out door too.

Try giving him a ball with holes in it and stuffing it full of food, he will spend hours trying to get the food out, try it.
