| Throwing up poo! So today was the second day I left Molli at doggieday care. As some of you may know she is a poo eater, forbid didnt work and the pineapples are a work in progress. Anyhoo I thought they were going to watch her but apparently not because she must have eaten either her poo or someone elses because as soon as we got home she started throwing up poo. I called the place she was at which is also a vet clinic and they said she would just throw it up out of her system and she should be fine. This does not seem normal to me. Should I be mad at the vet? The poo eating thing wouldnt be so bad if it didnt make her sick every time, it breaks my heart! What can I do???

| I am so sorry. I have dealt with this with Cooper, but it was always her poop . I would worry about her ingesting other dogs poop, not sure what they have eaten, medications etc. I hope you find a solution and are able to break her from this yucky habit. |

| This is the most dreadful think that our "angelic" pups do. I finally get where I think it won't happen again and boom somebody does it. Hopefully as they get older it becomes less of a problem. It is awful to think she might be eating "strangers" poo. |

| i would keep trying pineapple or i've heard of meat tenderizer and if they aren't cleaning the poop up in dog daycare AS SOOON AS IT HITS THE FLOOR!! Then I would request private suite daycare or find another better caring facility that cleans their floors fast! They are supposed to be supervising the dogs not allowing poop to linger long enough to be eaten. I know I worked for one. |

| You have to be careful because sometimes when a dog vomits feces it is because of a BLOCKAGE and they could die from a blockage. If it doesnt stop i'd take her in to the vet. |

| We are working on "leave it" for strangers poo and I'm slowly switching food to one w/ brown rice and low fat that was reccomended. Luckily shes fine now I was mostly mad because here Im paying the day care to watch her and they oviously wernt, I told them shed eat hers and others poo so I dunno if I want to go back. Sucks becase its so close to my house but when I called to ask the about it they said they only 'sometimes' watch the dogs when they are outside and it depends on how many their are. I prepaid for 6 days but only used 2, I'm thinking of asking for my money back!

| You are in a tough situation and I feel your pain. My Max is a poop eater. He knows the leave it command and will listen to me when I'm outside with him. But if my 2 boys are outside and i don't say "leave cooper" fast enough then he will eat it. He will literally stand behind Cooper waiting. I bet it is happening a lot quicker at Molli's daycare than you think. I doubt they are just letting it sit around. My Max has only been boarded twice and it's at my vet hospital. They know to watch him like a hawk.

| I would demand your money back if you told them ahead of time she eats the poo and it makes her sick. They knew they were going to need to watch her extra closely and didnt. Dont feel bad asking for the money back for rthe days she wont be there
