First, do you have a fenced in garden? If not, going out alone is not wise, until you have your dog very trained to not run away off leash. I have no fence, yet my dog will go out by herself into the garden and do her business immediately and turn around and come in. It took me a year to get her to do that, so be patient. First, take her out and tell her to go. While she is going, go back in and wait inside with a treat. Call her in when she is done. When she can do that, only start to walk out with her halfway, and tell her to go potty (or whatever word you use) Stand there, halfway and wait and while she's going, go back in and wait for her with a treat. When she does that, just stand at the door and tell her to go out. Give her a treat when she comes back in. That worked for me. After awhile, my dog just ran out by herself and did her business and came back in.
