She's EXACTLY right. And, I had a VERY GOOD trainer tell me once that if you do "yell" at her after the fact-and you didn't catch her in the act, even though it isn't nice feedback, she is still getting attention, and this could be confusing her-she may think that she gets attention when she goes, so she may keep doing it. It's best to clean it up and pretend like nothing is wrong if you do not catch them in the act. (Also because they don't know why are are "yelling" at them because they did it 2 minutes ago (or whenever).
