| It's gross but a lot of us have been through it. I had a big problem with Spike. There are many products you can buy to put in there food but what worked for us was sprinkling Adolf's meat tenderizer on the food. I only had to do it for a few weeks. I've also read here that some feed pineapple and that works too. Many time puppies just outgrow it. Welcome to YT!

| I know there's something you can give them not to eat the poop, but one of the members babies got an upset stomach from the pills. I'm sure it varies from furbaby to furbaby.

| Welcome!! YT is a great place to learn about yorkies. I haven't had this problem, but I have heard others recommend Solid Gold's SEP - stop eating poop - that you sprinkle on the food

| or potty mouth is a tablet you give them to make it taste bad..but, I'm going to try something else I've heard about..you boil up some baby carrots, there is something in them that is supposed to help to keep them from eating it, but, for some reason, they're supposed to be cooked..Will let you know when I try it, if it works.. |

| Welcome to yt, some puppies does that they ussually grow out of that, just tell her NO in a firm way, and pick the poop right away, or like the other member said they sell this stuff in Pet-store that help them stop eating poop |
