| What Vitamins Are You Giving Your Baby My vet is recommending Liqui-Tinic (Vitamins) and Coproban to hopefully get Gizmo to stop eating his poop. I was wondering if anyone has or is using these to products. Thank you! |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I haven't used these myself, but have heard of the Coproban. I hope it works for you. Why does your vet think your kiddo needs vitamins, is he not eating well?

| My vet said that usually when dogs eat their poop its because of vitamin deficiency. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I hadn't heard that theory, some people think it's a potassium deficiency, while others think it may have something to do with the protein in the food being too hard for the pup to digest. I believe that theory is correct on many dogs, because things that you add to the food such as meat tenderizers or pineapple which contains bromelain, a meat tenderizer, works for many dogs. If the poop has undigested protein in it, it smells appetizing to the dog. Dogs can smell individual ingredients in their poop, not the blend we smell. Adding a little pineapple to the food has helped many people here. If you dog is under one, he'll probably outgrow it, but you can try adding pineapple to see if it helps.
