| My Yorkie eats dog poop. We have two dogs, one is a 4 yr old Yorkie (Mitzi) and the other is a 14 yr old Maltese (Maggie). Most every time Maggie poops Mitzi will follow and start eating it. Is there anything we can do to stop her from doing this?? |

| You can give Maggie something that would make the taste unappealing to Mitzi (Forbid, pineapple, etc. - different methods). Sometimes a food switch could work too (it would taste different that way). Also, my pup will eat poop when he doesn't eat enough at meal time. It's very common (called coprophagia). There is also just saying NO and pulling Mitzi away.
