Thank you. I like the idea of taking her right outside. Now that the weather is getting better here in MIchigan this will be easier to do. Im learning even though its only for a split second, if she is out of the crate she must be watched every second. Good grief I had a child like this lol I should know better lol. We will get by this I know we will. I just hate to replace new furniture .

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.
