So train the dog. You have time. Start with leashing the dog up and walking it. Dogs learn to learn. It's fun and easy. Both of our dogs are rescued. For one, we are her 5th home. The four before us were idiots. She's amazing.
 
Remember train them with love, a soft voice and a gentle hand. Reward but never punish. Get down and whisper in their ears in a soft low voice. Scratch their necks and throats. There is nothing more rewarding for you both.

And I'm sure you've trained them well, Frank.  This one ain't my dog and it was never trained and doesn't get taken out often enough to avoid accidents.  It was my wife's dog, but she refused to take it with her when she left and my boys are very close to it, so I didn't have the heart to get rid of their dog too - it was bad enough they were losing their mother.  The next time I move, it's not coming with me.

Neither of my dogs have ever urinated or defecated anywhere in my home... ever. I've had one three years and the other 4 1/2 years.
