Taycie did this also. Scheduled feedings and watching how much treats she got helped me a TON!
She eats breakfast anywhere between 7 and 8 am and dinner between 5-6 pm. She will poop and potty first thing in the a.m. and then have breakfast. She will sometimes poop again mid morning/afternoon. This all depends if I give her treats and she is playing hard and running like crazy
Then at dinner time she will go out again, this is NORMALLY when she poops again. Honestly she really only does this about twice a day for her sometimes 3, but this is rare. Scheduled feedings have helped my potty training whoes immensely. As far as potty goes I usually take her out about ever hour to 1 1/2. She will usually always go. These little guys have such tiny bladders
Also, if you are looking to give more freedom, I would try an x-pen. I did this along with a crate and it really helped a TON! It gave me the option to allow her more freedom and room but I loved it when I couldn't watch her like a hawk so she couldn't sneak off somewhere and have an accident!
I hope this helps! Good luck! It does get better! I PROMISE!
