I have a 7 month old German Shepherd; she is “paper trained” – but refuses to go outside!

I am now putting her in her crate for an hour or so, then outside – back in to play – outside again – back in crate – and so it goes throughout the day. I feel bad about putting her in her crate so much; but that was the last bit of advice I was given. (confine, outside, play, outside, confine)

Due to an injury and subsequent surgery, I have been limited in what I can do with her until recently. Prior to my injury, we had been to puppy classes; so she knows her obedience commands, and is well mannered & socialized. Except for this “indoor toilet” bit – she’s a good dog!

Thank you kindly for any helpful hints you may have.

Carry her poo outside and lay it on the grass where you would like it to land, she’ll get the idea.
