PLEASE don't do this again, it's very unpleasant & it won't do any good anyway!

You don't say how long ago you moved in, but it sounds as though she's trying to get the house to smell of her rather than the old dog. All you can do is be patient. Try taking her into the garden every 30 minutes for the next couple of weeks and praising her when she goes outside. If she goes inside, don't yell at her, just ignore what she's done & lead her outside. Leave her there while you clear up & always use a dog deodoriser spray on areas that she's soiled so that she won't be led back to the same spot.

You'll just have to go right back to basics with her....Start taking her outside yourself every 30mins/1 hr and stand with her till she goes then lots of praise & a high value treat and maybe a frase like 'go wee's' or what ever you want when she does it.

yip i would deffently agree with the last two posts she is trying to get her smell in the house even taking the carpets out if the urine is soked into the floor boards you might not be able to smell it but she sure will if it dont improve you may have to have the carpets back up and floorboards scrubed and deoderised. and the back to basics route is deff the way to go and rubbing her nose in it has and never will work all it will do is cause her to be untrusting of you its nothing personal
