But, to the OP, it is true that when it comes to potty training, the dog doesn't know what you are punishing it for. You know how we can rewind our brains and recall memories? Like I can remember that I went to the bathroom myself just a little while ago. Well, dogs can't do that. They can't rewind their memories and remember that they peed on the floor. The only real way to correct them is to catch them doing that and they will connect the two. Peeing on floor = angry mommy or daddy. But when you "rub their nose in it", all they learn is that messes on the floor make you angry. They won't realize that them MAKING the mess on the floor is wrong. A lot of people make this mistake and never have fully potty trained dogs.
