We have a female Chi Apso, she is a sweet little 9 month old. We have had her for 7 months. She is very smart and has learned many commands, but we cannot get her house trained. We have a big backyard and she loves being out. We walk her and play a lot in the backyard. As soon as she is in the house she pees or poops! I am at my wits end on what to do about this behavior. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thank you!
