Toast the bagel halves cut-side up in a toaster or under a broiler for 2 to 4 minutes until golden and crisp. Let them cool for 1 minute so the cheese topping stays firm.
Drain the cottage cheese in a fine-mesh sieve and blot with a paper towel. In a small bowl, stir together the cottage cheese, lemon juice, capers, black pepper, and two-thirds of the fresh dill. Mash lightly with a fork until the mixture holds together.
Spread about half of the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the toasted bagel halves. Layer on the cucumber slices. Spoon the remaining cottage cheese into a small bowl beside the bagel. Garnish both the bagel and the bowl with the sliced red onion and the remaining fresh dill.
