I would recommend using a spray bottle and spritz him in the face whenever he does this or use a shock collar and use the low setting to startle him every time he goes after poop. This will hopefully deter this behavior. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
