When you visited her as a pup at breeder was she in an enclosed pen or out in the house. I had same problem with one of mine and I have worked out in hindsight that as a pup she had never learnt the basic rule that you move from your bedding area to wee. Though they were in big area, it was still enclosed and so I think she never learnt to migrate.
Mine lost her bedding for a while and lived on bath mats, easy to wash at decent temperatures. With strict toileting regime she very quickly learnt not to do this. Best way forward is be super strict with toileting.
* out when she wakes
* out shortly after a long drink
* out shortly after meal
* out after playing
* out after loony moment
* out every hour otherwise
Also designate somewhere she should aim for i.e newspaper near the door. Though aim is to go outside always its good to get her aiming where she should be heading for (especially for at night). I used to get up at night to let mine out as my aim really was for her to only toilet outside. However I am sure many on here would disagree with doing this.

Katy peed in her bed and slept in it for months, I'd say from 12 weeks - about 11 months old. I'm certain its because she came from a dirty house to living rough for a while and honestly never knew any different. It took an awful long time to break the habit. Caz gave you some good advice, I'd follow that |

That's quite common as well, the puppy pads often teach dogs to pee in the house, always seems a bit of a backwards thing to do, to me! I agree that could be it.

The puppy pads have a chemical in it to encourage the puppies to use them.

Once they have pee on something it can be difficult to get the smell (on the dogs level)out so they can keep going back to the same area cos it smells.
You need to find something that breaks the wee down so it dont smell on surfaces you cant throw in the washing machine!!
Sorry but I cant remember what I used on floor and carpet now!!

It has to be something that doesn't have ammonia in its ingredients,or dog thinks that is wee and will think its o.k. to wee there.I think vets sell a solution to clean areas with,or a pet shop.

Simple Solutions do a Stain & Odour remover - available from PAH & other places. We've used it for cat disasters. Mind you it does stink a bit itself but it might break the cycle.

You will get there jmk,just follow caz2s list and you won't go wrong.
But equally important is not to smack or shout at Roxy,if you catch her in the act,just say no and take her outside.(or you will have a nervous dog which is certainly not good,and it will take even longer to train her).

Non bio washing powder/liquid I'm sure is the best type to wash pee bedding in.

The pup is probably simply regaining her scent on her bed to claim its hers, because her original scent was washed away when the bed was washed.
