We have a puppy she was poty train when we move to a new house she didt every where we dont know what to do?

The new house is obviously strange to her and she doesn't understand that all the new rooms are part of the INSIDE of the house. First, you need to confine her to one room whenever you cannot keep a watchful eye on her(preferably one that doesn't have carpeting). Second, when she is loose in the house, you need to ask her if she ';needs to go out'; every 45 minutes to an hour... and bring her out whether she does her business or not. Third, feed her treats in EVERY room of the house. Get right down on the floor with her so she associates each room with food and love. She will then begin to understand that each room is not a potty place. Be sure to feed her at the same time every day. It takes 21 days for a puppy to learn a new habit. That means 21 days of getting up at the SAME TIME every day, feeding at the SAME TIME every day and being watchful to her signals that she may have to go. Puppies need to go after they eat, play, chew and sleep. Be mindful of her signals. Lastly, and most importantly, do NOT scold her when she has an accident in the house. Instead praise, praise, praise EVERY time you see her do her business outside. Once the house training is complete, pick up some Nature's Miracle to get rid of all the ';accident'; spots in the house. You can find it any your local pet supply store.
