She doesn't know what a doggie dog is and until she grasps the concept of going outside...she probably won't use it on her own. Since she's from a puppymill...she's used to having to go where ever she was caged. when you take her out...not only praise her...say the command...go potty or whatever phrase you want to use....until she goes...then give her a treat. Eventually she will connect that phrase and those treats to her actions. It may take some time, but I betcha within a week or so...she will at least understand what it is you want her to do.
If she goes in the house and you catch her....scold her and take her outside repeating your phrase.
On pooping...I really suggest paying attention to the times she's going. Mine are all very regular in what time they poop. I would take her out around that particular time.
