Thank you for submitting your question regarding Abbey. I suspect that she is stressed by the arrival of the new puppy. Be sure to give her one on one attention and take her outside frequently. Give her lots of praise and a high value treat when she does go. Her behavior should get back to normal, but it can take some time. I hope this information helps!
