I agree with this solution! Also, you can take a pee pad outside with you, introduce her to it outside, hopefully she will tinkle on it, then take the pad back into a designated area of the house, and re-introduce her to it, telling her to "(whatever your command will be to potty)".....you may want to start doing this NOW so she will at least have a clue what you are wanting in 4 months...and she cant look at you one morning, at 5am, when it is 10* outside, and there is 3 feet of new snow on the ground and those steps are covered in ice, and say, "What in the world are you talking about????" God love 'em! She may do that anyway, but you can at least tell her "Bella Rose, Dont dummy up on me now!!! You KNOW what I am saying"!!!!!!!!!!!
