if it's an older dog, maybe she is getting senile and just forgetting until the last minute. That happens. Diapers are great for male dogs to not pee...but do you really want to change and then clean off y our dog with caked on poop? Perhaps it's time to gate off an area or get him her a nice comfy crate to use when you are not watching.
Many things can contribute to this. Over all, dogs only remember 5 seconds after doing something. So finding the poo after this and yelling at the dog or hitting it, does no good.
How old is your dog and has it been house trained before this? Is it going long periods of time between being let out to go?
As our dogs got older we noticed we started needing to take them outside more often. How old is this dog? Has it every been house trained? How often do you take it out to potty?
First how old is the dog? Was or has it ever been housebroken? Easy to do with a puppy. Or take the dog out every two hours without fail even if he or she doesn't want to. If older, have checked with a vet. Or train to use puppy pads for easier clean up. You have options!

Maybe it needs to be let out sooner.
