Puppy potty training problem!!?… Help!?

My 4 month old Jack Russell/Beagle mix has been hell to potty train,
He is constantly having accidents and at this point its incredibly ridiculous…
He gets taken outside numerous times a day and won’t use the bathroom outside, within 5 minutes of coming back inside he’ll piss on the carpet…
We have tried & continued to try puppy pads inside not for a permanant, bit just in case of accidents and he sees them as toys and something to rip up…
Our 7 week old JRT has been doing very good with his potty training, he goes everytime he’s outside… I assumed that the puppy getting rewarded for using the bathroom outside even using the puppy pads would encourage our 4 month old to do the same, but that seems to not be the case…
We could probably take him out more, but when he’s outside he thinks it’s play time… and I think he’s come to think that my carpet is his toilet…
We live on the 2nd floor so we can’t just toss him out the door when he sniffs around, we have to chase him around to get his leash on him and he thinks its a game….
Also, more than half the time he gives no signs of having to go… he’ll be sitting around on second and the next you’ll hear the sound of urine seeping into my carpet… Its disgusting…
I have had enough and Its getting extremely frustrating…
We are expecting a baby in August and I would love love love for him to be potty trained by the time the baby comes, so I don’t hafta worry aobut constantly scrubbing my carpet and my home can be clean once again….

Any advice/ help would be greatly appreciated…
Thank You very much!!!!
lizzy: i would never get rid of or hurt my lil babe… that was kind of f*cked answer…
i just want him to not think my carpet is his personal bathroom

Any suggestions on crate potty training a puppy?

I have a six month old puppy who at times uses her crate as the toilet. I thought I had it solved when I took the bedding out, but I didnt. She can hold it for hours when shes just roaming the house. But I can leave her locked up for two and come home to a big puddle and a smelly dog. I have tried a million things and just when I think I’ve got it figured out she does it again.
I need help!
