When you praise him, wait until he has finished and as soon as you see he has finished, then praise him and reward him if you are using treats as a training tool.

I am sorry i wasn't clear in my original post, I have had him since last Friday so for 8 days, now I know that is still not enough time to be completely used to the new house and surroundings, but poo'ing 4 times in 8 days seems a little extreme to me. I am really worried about some kind of impaction or something going on if he continues to hold it for this long.
