she pees and poops inside been taking her out every hour or 2
still manages to do poop and pee inside
should i just take her out more often like every 30 min or so?

when she pees/poops inside, you should yell and take her out side right away. in middle of the act would be best.

/e just taking her outside at random times doesnt do anything really. but when she does poop/pee outside then praise her/pet her once in awhile.

i find if they piss on the floor you rub there nose in it and tell them bad in an angry voice and put them outside

same goes with the shit but dont rub their nose in it just put it realy close to it and say bad and what not

i suggest taking them outside every half hour to an hour till they get teh point

and when they do go outside get them excited by calling them good and petting them, im sure you know how to make your dogs happy lol


/edit

i slap on the ass isnt going to far either imo

i dont really want to hit a puppy pitbull and regret it when its older
i took her outside and gave her a treat when she peed on the grass
but she didnt poop
but after 5 min of walking sat there n wouldnt move n kept staring at the treat bag until i gave her another lol

lmao you dont need to hit a dog to teach it something

you need to raise your voice and change your tone when it does it

at first it will start to realize you are getting mad at it for a reason, then after a while it puts 2 and 2 together, potty training a dog doesnt happen overnight

and like someone said, once it goes outside, praise it by petting it real good, they will know they did something right

im not asking you to beat your dog by any means lol

but discipline is a must for all animals

a spank on the but could be just a mere love tap which will hurt there feelings more then themselves

You should get your pup a crate.
Dogs tend to not trash their little ''den'' so when you get her one, keep her in her den and bring her out of her den to go outside whenever you think she has to (puppies should be around 2-3 hours then more as they get older
the second your pup pees or poops, priase and reward

we have a giant cage she was crying for most of the night barely got any sleep
but she finally peed outside n pooped once outside
its like taking care of a human baby

Ahh i should mention. I've gotten an XL crate for my rottie and my GSD/rottie and you have to use the divider and just give enough space accordingly. Giving them too much room is viewed as you spoiling your little one.
Keep her near you when you sleep, and progressively distance her crate from your bed over time. Have her crate open when you're around with her. Praise and or reward her whenever she goes in saying '' Bed '' along with your praise ^^
Then over time you'll want to praise reward her for not bitching. Then do this with her locked up. From here on, i would say to just increase the time you are away with her etc etc. 5-10 sec. 15-25, 30-40, 1 minute, 1.5 min etc etc you have to be consistent. her not barking for 5-10 doesn't mean to go straight ahead to 15-25. Do it for 3-5 times, if she doesn't bark, or cry then it's safe to say you can advance to the next stage. ^^

What i did was this. Example
day 1, 5-10, 15-25, 30-40 once i reach this point, it's pretty much the point where Hero will start barking.
Day 2, 15-25, 30-40, still the same
Day 3, 30-40
Day 4 30-40, 1 min, 1.5 min
day 5 1 min etc.

hope this helps..
Doing this early will prevent separation anxiety. My pup Ares developed this as i didnt know much about it. I spoiled him and left his cage near my bed. When i lie down it's a cue that it's nap/sleep time so go to bed.

a professional trainer told us to leave her cage open so she gets used to going in and out on her own dont let her on beds n the couches make sure she stays on the floor
stuff like that
she is still having issues with pooping inside n peeing from time to time
its hard to time when to take her out we try every hour or so
