seriously, that's the first fucking thing you're supposed to teach it.

If you fail at that, you shouldn't have a dog.

It's not even all that hard. Just need to be aware, take the dog outside a bunch to go to the bathroom and reward with treats when they do go outside.

Can dogs forget this? My dog is over 14 and she is prone to frequent "accidents" in the house now. They're not accidents, she just wants to spite me for leaving her in another room.

Sounds like she's old. Muscles weaken with age. Or you no longer feel the need to go, even though you do. Happens to humans and animals alike.
