Smile Toilet training - outdoors

Hi everyone,

I have a 10 wk old Red Setter who is just adorable, and being our first puppy, we are not so good on the does and don't of toilet training business. She is having her first injection tomorrow so not able to go for walks, only around our garden. When she indicates that she wants to wee or poo (circuling) we have been scooping her up and taking her outside, but when she come back in she then wees on the floor. Its as if she kind of forgets what she was doing in the first place. She is still yet to do anything outside which is what we are waiting for so we can really praise her. Even first thing in the morning when we know she is needing to "go" and is taken outside she still does nothing then on return into the house she deposits on the floor. I have had to put newpaper covered with an old towel down or she would probably do it everywhere. We are just not sure if we are doing it correct or are we just expecting such a little one to be at this stage. Any suggestions?? One of my friends did say just this morning to try putting one of the soiled towels outside for her to smell herself so I think I will try this also - hopefully it will stop raining.

Any help will be greatly appreciated - just to help her and us do it correctly.
Bye for now
