If she had an accident it was always on the bathroom rug, not a problem because I can wash the rug. So I then decided to put a wee wee pad down in place of the rug she would potty on that if she couldnt hold it. She's been out of a crate for probably 4/5 months. She sleeps on the couch, or her bed in the living room (I give her run of the downstairs because the kitchen is tile and the dining room, foyer are hardwood floor, carpet only in the living room). The other day I was out for a few hours and didnt think I needed to stop in as I had the wee wee pad down in the bathroom...well was i wrong I came home to pee on my reclining chair..VERY upset I cleaned it up told her she was bad, then made her go outside. Tonight while my fiance was home she pee'd on the couch!!!! Now I'm extremely pissed I dont even want to look at her, she doesnt have a problem going to the door and barking to go out. I now have to dig her crate out and keep her in it during the day and when we go out I guess. I didnt really want to do that but I have no choice I cant have my furniture ruined. Does anyone know why she would be spiteful and do this? Is it wrong to put her back in the crate?

Sorry this is so long, I'm so upset and dont know what to do. Thank you for listening and keeping me sane.

My 2 started doing this too...I don't know why! If you find a solution...please post it..
