I was reading some place I think the AKC website that on average it takes 13 times for a puppy to learn something into long term memory. The weather is what is making training so hard for my Heni & Arshas, -4F is too harsh.
On the days they are outside, and pooping or peeing, we've taken to petting them and in the most baby voice possible say, "good little girls, oh what good little girls" every time they pee or poop. The only down side is they want to poop right near my feet now to be told they are good (laughs) while we are outside.
They still have accidents but at 13/12 weeks I understand. =)
