Open Question: My dog still isn’t potty trained,?

Ha it’s horrible, he’s nine months and still pees/poops in the house.We train him to do his business outside and he doesn’t take that long of a time to find a territory but still. When he does do it in the house, we get mad at him, and my mom puts him for timeouts and yells at him (LOL;]) but he’s still not understanding? We’ve been trying to get him to do his business outside for more than 6 months now. Any suggestions about what we should do? Don’t tell me to take him to petco and get him trained and all that mumbo jumbo or to make him pee on a pad (those make the house smell REALLY bad)The thing is, he mostly does his business in the house when we ARE home. We leave him alone for about three hours (when my dad leaves at 12 and i get back from school at 3) and we come home to see that he hasn’t peed or pooped inside so we take him out immediately and he pees/poops. But when we’re home, he pees/poops in the house. Sometimes he just stands infront of the door not making a sound, thinking that we know he has to go outside. He’s un undescribable dog.That’s possibly true Shanna :) But we do exactly what you’re saying except for the watching like a hawk part. Most of the time, our eyes are on him, but we let the dog be alone too, freely. And when he’s about to do his business inside, we rush him outside and yes we have a praising parade when he does it outside.gah yes he’s fixed and of course we thoroughly clean the floor.
