POOP UPDATE:

Been crating our Great Dane to see if that solves the night pooping problem. Last night he actually pooped in the crate. Didn't make a peep. No whining or barking. It was actually the smell that woke me up.

Looks like its something beyond the poor puppy's control. we will be visiting the vet.

So we are having a crisis and I need your help.

Since Saturday, my dog is freaking out about going outside and on walks.  She is usually outside off and on all day and night and I would say is typically outside more than inside.  She loves walks and goes crazy over wanting to take one. Now she won't go in the backyard and we have to drag her to go on a walk.  Given the chance she just runs straight back to the front door.  We think she might have been stung by a bee and is scared but I'm now freaking out about her freaking out.

Any suggestions or tips on how to get her back to normal?

I'd try taking her someplace fun, like a dog park, lake, etc. Something beyond just a walk. Also, act completely normal...if you're nervous (for whatever reason at all) then the dog will echo, and often magnify, that feeling.

That's pretty odd behaviour. Sure you don't have an asshole neighbor or their kids that is messing with her? Neither of my dogs will go outside if they hear fireworks of any sort...but they're over it by the following morning.
