I think Nobella makes a good point. I also forgot to say that if you yell when you see him going, he may think he is getting in trouble for the act in general. Someone in my family yelled @ stewie when he was going #2 on the kitchen floor. He got so scared for a while that he would HIDE when he went. I found piles in the far end of my closet. He must have snuck in there when he realized I wasn't paying attention to him at all and went in there. I broke him of that, but it was a huge step back. You don't want your little baby to start hiding from you to do his business, so I would make sure that you're stearn, but not frightening to him when you catch him in the act.
