My pup loves to go out regardless of the weather. I always put a coat or something on him when it's cold or wet. And we stay out only 5 or 10 minutes if the weather is bad. (He still doesn't want to come in.)
I have puppy pads in the house - which he uses when he feels like it. And he wears the belly bands when he's running around the house. Occasionally, he will pee on the puppy pad with his belly band on. And, I for sure praise him a lot when he does this.
I don't mind taking my pup outside, but the problem is that my timing isn't very good. He will often pee about 5 minutes before I planned to take him out. And, other times, I take him out and he's not ready to go.
We're working on it! Good luck!
