I just adopted a beautiful female EB from a good friend of mine. This is the first dog in my total care in ten years. She is very laid back and wonderfully tamed. There is just one problem I am facing, she is four years old, two of those four she has been outside in a large pen with her brothers. But now she will be mainly an inside dog, so now I face the prospect of poo poo training. I am looking for some tips and advice.

Thank you

I'd just start from scratch with her...restrict her living space, take her out to her designated potty area after naps and shortly after meals...lots of praise...etc.

...hopefully, since I'm assuming she was housebroken at the beginning, it won't take her as long to 'remember' what's up...

Pictures?

So you dont see her age being a factor for retraining her?

Actually, she really looks like she is enjoying the comforts of your home.
IF she is laid back, then she is napping alot. When she wakes up,
immediately, ASAP, no pit stops, take her outside. It will not take too
long for her to get the idea. She is a cutie - Good Luck.

THanks for all the advice. I have been doing that, she is a smart dog and I think she is picking up on it. It is more me then her on getting MY act together and not confusing her with what I want. Only problem now is I am working and I am leaving her alone about up to four hour in the morning (luch) four hours in the late afternoon until I get home, but I think we will work it out she is not rebelious. I have her in my guest bathroom (not crated) with a childrens gate, hopefully once we get our scheduale down we will be fine.
