I have to say that scheduled feeding has made housebreaking a lot easier I think for mine. With all toy breeds it seems to take a while for the most part. Lex is now 15 months old and I can say totally house broken (knock on wood). Lulu who is now four months is learning fairly fast because of Lex. She will use a pee pad some in the house but at the rate she is going I am hoping to be able to get rid of it all together in two more months. I take them out rain or shine to use the bathroom. I know what you are saying about her doing everything but using the bathroom outside. Lex tends to take forever if I let him as well..he is nosey and wants to see everything around him.

I totally understand your frustration. Good luck. The best thing I can personally suggest is the scheduled feeding. When I free fed Lex we had all sorts of potty issues. Once I started the scheduled feeding thigns shaped up nicely. I then had to deal with a bit of a marking problem but I fixed that by neutering him.
