I believe any dog can be potty trained it just takes time and perseverance. Dogs will have their accidents but on the most part they want to please you.
I don't think that you can blame it on a breeder when your dog is hard to potty train. You have to find what works for you and your dog.
If you are not going to be home most of the day then I do swear by the ex-pen. I am most of the day and I used pee pads and an ex-pen. Now that it is warmer outside I take her outside, but I still leave a pad out for the just in case and she does sometimes use it.
Limiting their free space to one room is also good when potty training bc they have less chance of sneaking off and starting bad habits.
Potty training is not fun.....but it is our duty to teach them so don't give up start from the beginning and every day is different!! Your dog will eventually learn it is still very young and it takes time.
