She could just be very confused and honestly that is what I am thinking may be going on. First you taught her to use puppy pads, then you wanted her to go outside....she went on the pads and got corrected and now she has no clue what you want.

Good luck and welcome to YT  |
When I say corrected her I mean I have cleaned it up and put her on her puppy pad and told her as we always have "potty" good girl and we give her a treat while on the puppy pad. and I didn't explain clearly I have never expected her to go outside she gets to go out every time our bully goes out but she has always been puppy pad train and we have never tried to outside train her... nothing has changed in our expectation of where she should go potty.. What I meant is that if I am going to start all over I would rather train her to go outside but being a little dog I will never expect her to not have accidents inside (one of the main reason I have hardwood flooring put in my house
) Thanks for the reply and for the concern and to answer the 1st reply its both potty and pooping! if it was just one or the other I would fear a problem and I did take a urine sample in but it was clear and our vet really thinks its behavioral as do I
Just not sure what road to take guess since I will be off the next two days with a sick child I will work on that! and on that note they are never alone more than 4 hours and that is just 2 days a week so its not that they are being left alone to often! teehee! I will try to post a pic but I have not figured all that out yet!
