I know it's early days and I've only had my puppy 5 days but she will not toilet outside.
She was paper trained at breeders so obviously has the association that she pees inside on 'something.
And she's decided that something is her bed. Or a knocked off cushion etc
I can stand outside with her for 45 mins with nothing happening apart from her biting my feet and running in circles. I say nothing but 'wee wee' but she doesn't go.
Then I figure she doesn't need it. So we go inside.
And she pees on the floor/on her bed.
She had done some outside and we make a huge fuss after.
And when she does it inside we completely ignore her
Any tips on getting her to wee outside?
I even tried putting paper down on the grass but she just picked it up and ran off with it 
If you're worried about your pet's health, please speak to a vet or qualified professional.
The doghouse
Toilet training getting nowhere.

Just make sure you are cleaning up any indoor accidents very well, using an enzyme cleaner that breaks down the urine to prevent any, tiny lingering smells confusing the dog.
Take her outside every 30 mins plus immediately after she wakes up or stops playing plus any time she looks like she might want to go (e.g. circling or sniffing). As I recall, my knees started to ache when Battendog was little because I was up and down so often letting him out. If she hasn't peed outside within 5 mins or so, bring her back in and try again 10 mins later. Keep this up till she does pee outside.
In the early days she knows very little about where to pee and so you have to twist the odds as far as possible to make it more likely she is outside when she needs a pee and inside when she doesn't.
It might also help to stop her thinking of toilet breaks as fun time - maybe keeping her in just a 'boring' bit of the garden to start with? Temporary fencing (the netting stuff gardeners use) or a play pen can help.
What you've described is perfectly normal though feels soul destroying at the time. I've toilet trained five puppies in my time and they were all basically trained in two weeks and totally reliable by 6-8 weeks and this is how I do it:-
Crate train firstly, hopefully the breeder will have got started on that.
Take out every half hour. When you're not outside, they're tethered to you constantly. On a long lead and you're watching them. If you have to leave them to cook, shower etc, they go into the crate. As soon as you've finished whatever you're doing, it's outside again. When they eventually go its mad praise and repeat the word you've chosen to represent them going to the toilet. This for some dogs will work in the future to get them to go on command but I confess it never worked for my current dog.
It's gruelling for a fortnight-three weeks and then they'll start getting it and one day you'll realise they haven't had an accident for days 
. Just be realistic about the time frames.

She's a really odd dog she doesn't seem to like treats.
She's not motivated by them at all. Or really interested in them. Even stuff like cheese cubes and ham 
Not all dogs do. Some like toys. Some praise. Some cuddles.
If you treat pup for going to the toilet you could find magically they need to pee every 60 seconds. Dogs aren't daft!
