He actully does it in the hall and he just wanders downstairs does it , wanders around then heads back up to bed. If there was anything disturbing him he would bark, it doesnt normally take anything to get him barking. The only thing about the habit is that its at different times and if we...
Further update.
Both dogs can come into the bedroom, although we dont let them on the bed til morning.
There is now no anxiety at all. Both dogs go out last thing at night and go to the toilet.
We have put a camera up downstairs to check the time of things and the JR is still weeing and pooing...
Little update
We have put his little bed/basket (not Crate) in the bedroom. The door is not is not shut and both dogs can sleep in the bedroom when they like. The first night the JR desperately wanted to be with us but we put him in his basket by our side. He seemed ok. The collie doesnt...
Thanks for the replies.

If the dog can go and Poop as many times as they like without having to wait or "hold it in" then maybe this is more likely the problem. A house trained dog that is left alone long periods learns to do this, whreas one that can get outside anytime may not.
I think you have said, there are other dogs there that M knows and are happy to come up to you so how about just being there and not directly interacting with her but with other dogs that are more confident. M will then see, and learn that the other dogs see you both as safe and also how to act...
Evening, we have a rescue Collie now 2yrs old. He used to be fine with the TV then suddenly one night the clapping and so on from the Covid, on the news frightened him. Now we cannot have anything with any clapping/cheering AT ALL. This could be any gameshow, sport event, music, news or quiz...
