We even had gotten to the point at 5mos were we would leave her in the bedroom without crating her and even loose at night, and she would go straight the potty pad during the day and night before we spaded her.

I think this is the issue. She was spaded, then we started leaving her alone for no more than 3 hours and not every day. Maybe twice per week. She doesn't want to leave our side especially when she is playing; therefore, she will let it go right there.

Before she would cross the house to go potty. Now if she is with us, she doesn't want to stop play or leave our side to go to the potty pad.

I'm out of ideas and beyond frustrated at this point. Crating her only works for one day, then she will go back to her bad habits.

Oh, she hates to use the bathroom outside if it's hot or wet. She runs right back to the front the door or she will go and sit under a shade tree. lol

So, having to start back with square one by taking and placing her on the potty pad every hour or two.

I was afraid to do the expen thing because she might eat her poo. At three months old I had a hard time with her doing that and I had to give her pills. therefore, I didn't expen for potty training.
We broke Beau from poo eating by feeding him a little pineapple every day. Something about it makes the poo disgusting to them....one would think it would already be disgusting, but whatever :-) It really worked.
