And he doesn't think she will "Go" in your living room tied to your couch?
Please do not tie your dog to the couch and leave her unsupervised. I know of dog accidently tangling themselves up and end of hurting their neck or strangling themselves to death.
I'm trying to figure our trainer out. I think I know what he is trying to do but as a trainer, I wouldn't not go that route. There are a lot better way of training that. I agree with SoCal "There are as many different training methods out there as there are trainers and I think it is important that the trainer share your philosophy of dog discipline just as you would want a nanny to share your philosophy of child rearing."
