Did the same thing recently with our new rescue puppy.

Crate training is what we are doing and she's already got it! Also taught her how to use the doggie door.

Please post a Picture of your new girl!

Crate train the dog again. Section off so dog can only rotate but not go to a corner and pee. When let out, immediately take dog to bathroom area, praise when peed.

When dog is inside the house, it's annoying, but you literally have to watch the dog the whole time (like a baby) to ensure you dont miss any cues of it sniffing the floor, wanting to go to the bathroom, so you can usher dog out.

Schedule, crate, leash and back up puppy pads.

Crate train. Small crate. Dog eats, dog gets out of crate, dog gets up from a nap immediately outside. If you aren’t watching her she goes in a crate, a playpen with wee wee pads or is tied to your wrist or belt on her leash. Praise her for pottying outside and give a command when you go outside like go potty. It may take time for a stubborn dog. Don’t deviate from this. It works.

Good luck. Let us know how it goes. Also a young dog needs to go out every few hours and don’t fuss at the dog. If she has an accident on the floor on my plan it was your fault. This leash attached to you also helps bond them to you.
