No need to resort to firm when it should be natural and calm and Relaxed.
House breaking has not a thing to do with lack of excersie and she better be seeking atention to get let out.

I didn't mean to offend you - have you ever watch The Dog Whisperer on National Geographic? Firm does not mean get a belt! Firm is a state of mind for training. Calm and Relaxed is for cuddling. Excercise IS important for good digestion, and they might get a sniff that encourages them to do their business outside. Don't get rid of the dog ... train it!
