I know it can be frustrating...I'm deailing with training 2 puppies right now (a boston and a yorkie) and they are a handful. We got Buckeye, our Boston, first and today he sat at the door and whined until we let him out!!! SUCCESS!! It comes and goes with every day. We're crate training and you might want to try that. We have to keep a really close eye on Tank because he likes to sneak off into the dining room when we blink and poo there. I'm trying to make him understand that is not his personal bathroom...the yard is
He's getting better though. You just have to be very consistent and praie praise praise. The puppy pads work for some people by they haven't worked for me. They are catching on better to the outside routine.
Goodluck and welcome to YT!!
