I have a boston terrier puppy and she just goes everywhere. I tried to get her outside every time she tries to pee but sometimes im not that quick.I used those pads but insted peeing on the pads she pees around them. Does anyone knows a way or maybe some product that can help me with the potty training?..thanks for all your help.. 
do NOT use pee pads. They encourage your dog to pee inside and that it’s OK. Potty training takes work just like dogs do. First of all she should either be in a crate of in the same room as you at all times. This way you always have an eye on her. If she sneaks off them put her on a leash and tie her to something nearby. When she starts to go yell NO!, this should get her attention. Run her outside and let her go outside( I would use a command like "get busy") when she goes praise her. Slowly you can give her more freedom as long as you watch her.
Most dogs have a specific amount of time after eating when they need to go. Time her and take her out at that time after eating. Do not free feed either or you will never know when she ate and needs to go. For now don’t free water either. Give her water at certain times or when she needs it and know when she will need to go outside. Always take her potty before you go to work or leave the house and before bed time. Do not allow food or water 2 to 3 hours before she goes to bed.

I have a 3 month old chihuahua pup. She usually urinates when I take her outside, but rarely ever poops outdoors. Every time I find one of her accidents, I place her in front of the door, then take her outside and put her in the grass. This seems to have had no effect on her, for she has yet to ever stand in front of the door when she has to go. I know this particular breed has a reputation of being difficult to potty train, but if anyone has any helpful tips please let me know.
My chi is just about the age of yours and I got him about 4-5 days ago, completely untrained. The first day was hellesque, no elimination went on outside. I got really fed up and started talking to friends, and one suggested that you take the rags that you clean up their messes with and place it in the grass where they are supposed to go. Praise during and tell the pup to "go potty" or whatever phrase you use to tell the dog to use the bathroom. Praise LOTS afterwards and give a treat while the thought of the potty is still in their mind (usually, this is seconds, have treats on hand). For chi’s, they love praise, so I’ve been simply going with the praise and no treats. My little baby has had about 1-2 accidents a day, which is very good after only 4-5 days of training.
Also, look for hints that they need to use the bathroom. They’ll sniff around frantically and if they have to poo, their little butt will stick out.
In particular, my chi always goes potty after a nap, so I am sure to take him immediately to the grass because when he is groggy, he won’t tell me that he has to go. So also pay attention to their personal potty schedule. To further control their schedule, try not to free feed your pup. Let her have the food and water bowls at certain times of the day and take the water away a couple of hours before you plan on going to bed.
Also, when they are so little, it may be hard to learn many steps at once. Instead of focusing on putting her by the door and then to the grass, just focus on getting her to have no accidents, and eventually she will tell you when she has to go, because she will know that she has to go outside.
My roommate was also talking about a "peeing post" that you can buy at pet stores. He swears by them, but I personally haven’t tried it out.
Also, don’t rub their nose in it or spank them during elimination, it will associate bad feelings with eliminating in front of you and then potty training will become that much harder. Tell them no, and that potty goes outside.
