My 11 year old yorkie is pooping and peeing in the house

[vannahb2010]

I have an 11 year old yorkie and she is house trained. The home we've lived in for years she's never pooped or peed anywhere other than outside. She even lets us know when she has to go outside, she barks until we let her out. But we just moved about a month ago to a new home and she's been peeing and pooping on the carpet. And her pee smells like fish , im guessing thats bcuz shes so old, so it makes the house smell. When were home she won't do it , we'll take her out but as soon as we walk out the door she'll potty in the house. We just had to clean carpets. This is driving me crazy ! I dont know if its bcuz we live in a new house or what.

We moved almost three months ago, and our eleven year old dog won't go to the door to let us know she has to go out, she used to at our old house,  Its very frustrating, if we forget to take her out, she will go on the rug, and she never used to.  We are trying to make her go out more often, and hoping she'll get back in the habit of standing at the door when its time.  Good Luck,

yeah I think its the new house everything i have read or learned has said that! You just might have to re-direct her until she learns same rules as old house! and that sux but it might mean crating or watching her VERY closely! also make sure you clean or put some type of scented stuff where she went potty leaving her scent behind wont help you have to mask it so she wont pee there again! she just needs to  learn same rules apply give it time! my dog it was sUPER hard he was 11 wks and didnt even have bladder control when we brought him home! But i keep a good eye on him and he usually doesnt have accidents!
