    A bit more background information would help.

    How old is he? Has this been a long term problem (since you got him) or a recent development (last few days/weeks/couple of months)? Have there been any changes in his environment? Any changes to his feeding/exercise/potty schedule?

    If it is a very recent change, a trip to the vet for a check up might be needed to rule out any medical issues.

    We need more information. Is he a rescue (i.e. did you get him from the dog pound)? How old is he? Was he raised in a kennel?

    The reason this is important is because many dogs which have never walked on actual grass or dirt but have been raised in a small kennel only big enough for them to turn around literally had to poop on the soft material which lined their kennel. This material might have resembled carpet or might have actually been a piece of carpet.

    Therefore your dog may have been conditioned to poop on carpet.

    However, your dog might simply be ill. So tell us more about your dog.
