Your dog needs to be taken out every time you see him wake up from a nap and any time you see he may be pacing near the door. I would walk him more than 3 times per day until he gets the hang of things and when he does go outdoors where he should be sure to praise him in a major way and give treats. Repeat the process over and over and over. It is harder to do with an older dog but keep at it.

Firstly do not force her to do potty where you want. Dogs do it where they smell it. Now you need to make the toliet smell like the place where she must do it. For that you can use a waste cloth intially or keep her job in the toilet for some time so it cathes the smell. Keep all other area clean and odourless.
