Omg Help! Natalie pee'd on the ottoman

Natalie is almost 2 years old and I still have not been able to get her completely potty trained. She doesn't go in her crate or xpen and can hold it all day and she is good at night. I take her out regularly, praise, treats, she has a bell on the door to ring, which she does sometimes but still goes inside on the carpet. She also hates wet grass, will stand out there and not move or go at all. I have waited 15-20 minutes and all she does is cry. This morning she went on the ottoman, I discovered it when I sat down to put on my shoes!! This is the first time she has gone on the furniture that I know of.

Now for the rest of the story. Two weeks ago I brought home a 12 week old puppy. Natalie is adjusting and they were playing this morning while I was getting ready and everything was fine. I don't know if she changed areas because she was rebellious or if she tried to go on the carpet and the puppy was bothering her. She has been jumping on the furniture when the puppy gets to be too much.

So, I have decided that starting tonight, she gets to wear panties inside if she hasn't gone when we were outside. We are going back to the beginning, regulated watering, more restricted access to the house everything. She gets good for awhile and then goes backwards but this is the worst she has done.

Sorry this is so long, I know a lot of people have trouble training yorkies, and I love her so much, but it's time she grew up and started behaving.

Any and all ideas would be welcome.
