Don;t let her out in the house till she’s gone- if you take her out, she doesn’t go, put her back in her crate, retry in 10 minutes, go WILD with praise when she DOES get it right. i am curious- did you get her from a pet store or pound where she was caged and would have been forced to soil in her space? i think that breed is notoriously hard to housebreak, but hang in there.

don’t let her in until she goes outside. she may dread this given your weather conditions, but eventually she will realize that to get inside sooner means she needs to go outside. i used to stay outside with my dog so i could watch her. i would stand on the back porch and say “go potty” and then praise her with petting and encouraging words immediately afterward. it’s also important for you to watch her during this process so that you can immediately let her in after she poos/pees that way she will connect potty with being let back inside.

put her out when she wakes , after she eats or drinks and also just before bed. Tell her to go potty and dont bring her in till she does then when she goes and you bring her in give her a treat and tell her she is a good girl. You could also put her out every time your male goes out then she will get the idea hey I gotta go out to go potty. It takes time so hang in there. Good luck

I hear your pain! but what we have found is that we have a lab and the crate we brought has a divider…and we had the area to big for him rate now at his size so we made it just a little smaller, also make sure that if she does go out side praise her and tell her she is a good puppy. My wife and I both go out at night when he has to go out and we give him loves after he potties…so far just a few # 1 accidents in the house but as soon as we see him doing it we pick him up and put him out in his spot. Good luck from what I hear and have been seeing in the past few days crate training is hard at frist but gets better as it goes.
