Potty Training

I have a 1 1/2 yr old male Aussie. His name is Anali and I am having a horrible time potty training him. He eliminates in the house multiple times a day and has now begun to mark his territory on my 4 month olds things. I have a appointment to neuter him next month but I need to get a handle on this issue before then. Also he has started to develop a habit of when I take him out he doesn't fully empty his bladder and will just go around pee a little at a time and then comes inside and finishes. I used to just let him off leash and he went to his designated spot but now I leash him and take him to different spots in the yard thinking he might fully empty it in other spots. I am at a loss for words on what to do. This is a major issue seeing my 4 month old will soon be crawling and I need him to be fully potty trained by then. I've had 4 other dogs besides him and have never had a problem training them. Please any advice would be appreciated. I have also tried a crate and he just eliminated in the crate no matter how small I divide it. :(
