Since it's an older dog, there could be a medical reason as to why your dog pees and poops in the house.  The first thing to do is to take the dog in for a complete checkup and blood work. You may have to retrain your dog also.  30 minutes after eating, take her outside and walk her.  Just leaving her outside is not a good thing to do, plus, you won't be able to monitor as to when she pees and poops.

I would think that you express displeasure when  your doggie excretes on your rugs. When you are outside with her, you can praise her and give her a skritch.

Keep close to Nature's heart... climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.* Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.*One of the widest gaps in human experience is the gap between what we say we want to be and our willingness to discipline ourselves to get there.
