I'm not picking on you, but this is important. My two are housetrained but that still means that when they gotta go, they gotta go When they wake me up in the morning they give me a little leeway (usually by sitting on my pillow and staring at me until I wake up) but when they go to the door and start whining, they NEED to go out or they will pee on the carpet. They ask to go out and will wait for me to finish what I'm doing, but they won't wait around while I sleep til noon. We go out around 7-8 and they eat breakfast and then we all go back to sleep.

You need to teach her the proper place to go. She's not going to guess where it is. Just because they are small does not mean they are like cats who know to use a litter box. They really do have to be taught the proper place to potty and once they realize it makes you VERY happy when they do that, they will continue to do it. Good luck! (My dogs are 3 & 4 and they still run back to me after going outside, as if to say "Look! I peed in the yard! I'm good! Give me cookie." )
