She was doing pretty good about always peeing outside, but I've never been able to get her to always poop outside. She still squats on the floor and even peeing now is not going well.
We're moving to a new house in two weeks and I just want to know if we should pretty much start our training over from scratch.
She'll finally have a fenced in yard and a walkout back door with no stairs, so i'm hoping she can learn that ringing the bell lets her out the door and she can do her thing out there on her own with me watching.
I was having to pick her up and carry her to a chicken wire fenced pen (not fenced yard) and then leash her up and go out hte front door during all the snow to a clearing spot.
Do you think finally getting on a real routine and schedule will help her?
Any advice to change her habits at the new place and avoid accidents all over my new floors?

What I've found out, is those that have been trained on potty pads are easy to train to go outdoors. The ones that have been trained to go outdoors, I've never been able to train to use a pee pad.
