What Seraphime says is correct but I do not think that is cause here because you say he poops not just pees, unfortunately you do not give enough information to accurately diagnose the problem.
Dogs have to be house trained, this training is possible cause naturally dogs don't like to go where they sleep and by quickly removing the dog from the house every time it starts to go, quickly it will learn to go outside. If yo live in a flat you may have to cage train the dog. Keep it in a cage and take it outside every hour, then gradually reduce the frequency of outside trips.
To your dog you must be the dominant dog, when you yell at your dog, he is getting attention from the dominant dog, which makes him important. So, quickly the dog learns that by pooing he gets a reward (attention) so, inadvertently you may be training your dog to poo inside. Some dogs will even interpret hitting as reward. So, always train by reward not punishment.

Yes, dogs need to be part of the family, dogs are by nature social creatures but don't make the mistake of thinking they think like humans. To a dog the cage, once they get used to it is a safe place, a good place to be.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe the poor dog is afraid of you and is submissively peeing because you are yelling at him? Chihuahuas aren't stupid, but they have to be TRAINED. They don't come automatically trained either. He's peeing inside cause you haven't taught him to go outside. Dogs take time, patience (no shouting, hitting, or in other ways making the dog afraid of you) and money and if you haven't got that to offer then the dog is better off with another owner than you who have no clue of dog behaviour.

That's the problem coz my hubby loves the dog. I want bigger dog. We live in a country,we have back yard,but i always put a leash on him coz when i try to take out the leash the dog is gone too far after whole day of chasing him,I finally got him in our neighbor place.Imagine i've been out there outside so cold,looking for him coz my hubby get upset on me if he knows the dog is gone.He even suspected it coz he knows i hate our little chihuahua coz that is his present on me.I want to train him i need advise here.Sorry my writing is comfusing,bear with me hehhehe merry x'mas thanks for advise.

Get some cleaner that removes dog odor and be sure to clean the spots he has gone inside very well. It is a dog's instinct to go where he already smells it! Take some of his messes out to the yard where you want him to go, and take him out there often. Praise him when he does his business there. Dogs are like kids. Tell them they're stupid, and they'll believe it and act accordingly. Tell them they're wonderful and they will live up to it. Treat the nasty little thing with love and kindness and he will respond! Or maybe he really is dumb....
