Oh My!!!! That is a LOT to ask of a puppy. There is very good advice above, but to 100% train in a month probably will not happen. Your puppy is just a baby. They feel they have too much life to live to stop and pee or poop in the right place 100% of the time. I sure hope your Mom changes her mind. There must be other ways to calm her nerves about this. Are you keeping up with everything else? Is there any brownie points you can work on with her? I would sure hate to see you lose your puppy. I wish you the very best and a miracle when it comes to potty training. In the meantime, set your goal and work on it constantly and consistently.
This may sound a little graphic, but when your puppy poops in the house, take it outside where he is expected to go. Leave it there and the next time you take him out, put him by that and let him smell it. For some strange reason, that gives them the urge to go. ANY time your pup wakes up it will have to pee.
