That's a great idea. If you can't watch her while she's out of the kennel, then put her in her kennel. Don't leave her in her kennel for more than 2-3 hours at a time, though. IMMEDIATELY after you take her out of her kennel, take her outside to pee, then bring her in to play for a little while. If she is out of her kennel and you are watching her, if she pees on the carpet, clap your hands really loudly to get her attention, tell her NO in a stern voice, pick her up and immediately take her outside. Whenever she potties outside, praise praise praise her and give her a treat WHILE she's outside. If you wait until you get inside to give her a treat, she will have forgotten what she's getting the treat for.
