You are off to a good start. She has the baisc idea of not to go in her place(the Bathroom) the idea will to be to slowly expand her space. What I would suggest is that as soon as you get home take her outside to pee and or poop When you return home do not give her free roam of the house always keep her right by you, Since you are saying she is holding it while you are gone I would say take her out every 4 or so hours while you are home to pee and or poop this way she realizes that this is where she is supposed to go. You need to follow the basic rules of crate training but using the bathroom instead. I hope this helps you |
