This has to be a fluid set of actions on your part, as she knows how to take advantage of your distractions (walking away to put the phone down). Reward her for peeing on the pad, and you need to catch her pooping in an appropriate place so you can reward her for that too. Ignore her accidents. I know how hard that can be, but they 'get it' so much quicker when we can be positive and happy with them.

Here are 2 threads (with some good links) that may help you with your pup.

I'll check back later if you have more questions .... (Best of Luck)
Great advice! use Nature's Miracle or another enzyme formula to eliminate all smells from the furniture so she won't go back and just keep a much closer eye on her. basically don't leave her alone without your eyes glued to her. if she goes interupt her behavior with a clap and a sharp NO NO NO and then take her to the right place and praise her for finishing there. keep it up you can do this and she can too!! don't loose patience even though it's hard and super annoying sometimes. she will learn it soon enough.
