My puppy and house training?

My 4 month old Golden Retriever is pretty much hose broken. He went outside to go potty for the first time after 2 days of having him. He was exactly 6 weeks old when we got him too. He still has accidents in the house. We will leave him outside with our pitbull for about 6 hours a day, and when he comes inside, it never fails he ends up going potty. Sometimes we'll watch him during walks and he'll poop atleast 3 or 4 times, but when we come inside he has to go again... I end up picking him up and putting him outside, so he'll just poop on our deck. He's too big now to keep confined to just our living room so he and out pit have the kitchen and the living room to roam in. We keep our bedroom off limits b/c he will poop in there. I'm not sure what to do to help with the last little step to get him to poop everything outside. He pees inside sometimes too, but we already know that he gets too excited so after he plays he needs to go outside, but just bringing him back in is our problem?

You need go outside with him and praise him for going to the washroom. Give him treats and pets and tell him things like " good boy" this will encourage him that going outside is something good. Ignore him when he goes inside, don't hit him, or say no, yell or giving any attention. Instead just take him outside and wait until he goes.
Reply:feed him three of four times a day. after every meal, wait ten minutes then let him out for 15 miutes or so... this should take care of the pooping problem
Reply:same here, be patient
