I have a feeling that Peanut is now trying to mark his territory. My mother has a fox terrier that is 14 years old and NEVER used the bathroom in the house, UNTIL my brother brought his 2 new chihuahuas to visit. All the chihuahuas had to do was pee on the carpet and now mom's dog "marks" her territory by doing #1 & #2 in the house!!! UGH!! Sorry, but I can't offer any suggestions to help you because I haven't figured that out myself.
