Always know what you want.

Have you tried training her on wee wee pads and getting her some chew toys? They always have good deals at petsmart.com for all your pet needs.

Having grown up in a house full of dogs, I have seen this type of behavior quite often.  There is a chance that your dog is experiencing some sort of separation anxiety.  This usually happens once a pet is left alone for any period of time.  Keep in mind, even if you are just leaving for a quick trip down the road, your dog has no idea how long you will be gone for.  She may just be trying to reach out to you.

You never know until you try. Tongue out

is she a puppy? has she been housetrained?

 

like the lady said separation anxiety make sure you tell your dog you will ba back soon before you leave. and take it out before you leave so it can use the bathroom, give it a toy before you walk out the door!

 

sorry i cant help, but i do want to try  the treat one with my 1 year old . thanks

 

If their were other animals living in the house before you ,and they went to the bathroom there your pet will also use the same place for a bathroom.You will have to replace the whole floor.

 

It sounds as if the dog has the run of the house which would be fine if the dog were house broke so you will have to go back to 101. Start her in one controlled room. This will be the same room you have here food and water in and also you will need a pet carrier. When you leave the house, the dog with her food and water and toys will need to go into carrier. As soon as you arrive home, or, get up in the morning take the dog out side and repete over and over be a good girl/or boy depending on dog until the dog does his or her business. If it has been all night both. As soon as the dog does one get excited and praise the dog using the dogs name saying good -dogs name here-several times and then repete until dog has done both if it is morning. If it is night make sure dog is empty before bedtime. If dog normally has run of house at night or sleeps with you this needs to be changed until behavior is changed even if this means bringing carrier into your roome with food and water and toys and shutting your door. Then take dog out asap when you wake in the morning before you go would be preferable if you want this to work. part of this theroy works on a dog will not ....where it eats as the old saying goes.Make sure the dog knows which toys belong to dog and find some toys that have a place to hide rawhide chews inside that make the dog work to get to them. this will keep the dog busy with the chewing problem and take them away from your items and train to taheir toys. Good luck and this does work.

This works with the most difficult to train dogs/pups.  Get a kennel cage, and make him/her stay in there, except when it's time to, eat, go outside and pee. don't let them run around the house, and don't let them come back inside until they go. Then put him/her back into his her kennel.  Dogs will NOT pee in their own living quarters.

It can take a couple weeks or more, but it works.  Once you feel they're ready to try it, let them out during the day, but place them back inside at night.  Make them tell you when they need to go outside(reward them if they do). If they pee any where except outside, immediately put them back into the cage. (This teaches your pet that he/she can stay out and play in the house quarters, provided he/she doesn't go to the bathroom in this environment.)

they finally learn being outside the cage is much more fun and rewarding and will stop peeing in their living quarters, which is your house.

Dogs Will be Dogs and Cats Meow

We should not strive to modify a dog’s natural instinct to bark, or growl or whine, or the cat’s meow. Let the dogs bark and the cats meow, this is how they communicate, just as a baby uses cry before it achieves the ability to speak. Let's all join in and strongly proclaim "Pet Power is in the House”. Thank you. Thank you.
