What breed?

It could be nerves, it could be lack of training up to this point. Just because she's pissing inside now, doesn't mean you can't train it out of her.

^^ This. House training may take time, especially with a dog like an ex-racer who (in all likelihood) hasn't lived in a house before.

This morning the dog and I were both awake at 5:30 so I let her out and she did a big wee and poo in the garden, she clearly knows she should go outdoors.

About 8:00 we went to the park for an hour where she had anther dump and did some scent marking type weeing.

We came home and I fed her and she had a drink.

I decided to go out for a little while (45 mins) to see how she coped and when I came home there was a wet patch in the middle of the carpet.

If I were to have her straight away she would be getting left from 8 till 1 then I will come home for lunch and then left again till 5.

At the moment if she's not with me I think she panics, how do I get her out of this?.

I was hoping to tell the lady at the kennels I would have her after this weekend but the way she is atm I think she'd be better off with someone who is at home most of the day.

Long walks immediately before you go out can help. As it'll let her piss, plus hopefully tire her out.

You should also try leaving her for shorter periods for now. Go out for a walk on your own for 5 minutes, etc. Then just keep putting the time up. Once she understands you're coming back, she'll not be bothered about being left.

If you get a Kong type toy you could put peanut butter or something in it, just give her it when you're going out. That'll hopefully keep her amused and not worried about you not being there.

Unless she starts noticing the Kong means "oh st he's going out again"

For some of our rescues, the Kong tactic has been pretty effective for noise management when we've no choice but to leave them home alone. fill them with peanut butter or something with a similar consistency, then freeze it to make it last longer

Get her checked out to make sure there is no physical issue

More likely psychological , if it is that it takes quite a while of gently training/reassurance for it to stop

My collie loved to wee and poo indoors, took months if not years for it to stop! Even now he has the odd wee indoors, usually when he sees me come in , I stop him jumping up to me, he panics and has a wee! Or if he is excited!

Long walks and frequently letting them out for a wee helps
