Default potty help

Can anyone help me? I have a 6 month old shih-poo. I have had her since she was 3 months. We have doggy doors going from our living room to the lanai and then from the lanai to our fenced yard. Just after Thanksgiving she seemed to understand to go to the yard for potty although she had accidents. Then she seemed to prefer to potty on the lanai which we tried to stop. (we have another dog that is potty trained). Now she seems to have forgotten or purposely disregards going outside and goes exclusively in the house. Even when we take her outside and tell her to go potty she won't and then she comes in and does it. Can anyone help with suggestions??? We of course tried the praise and treat right when she goes outside method. Potty pads inside work on and off. Sometimes she ignores them and sometimes she pees just off them
