 Poop-eating
We are struggling with this issue right now. I have two pups--Gabby and Izzy. Gabby is the poop-eater in this house! This is so embarrassing to admit my baby has this problem--she will eat both her own and Izzy's! She is not interested in any strange deposits in our yard, however. We have deer, racoon, and who knows what else leaving their calling cards--she'll roll in that, but won't eat it (thank God!)
We are putting meat tenderizer on their food right now, along with a pill called Distaste, and plain yogurt, which was recommended by a friend. It helps somewhat, in that she'll start the behavior, realize it tastes bad, and then stop. She can't seem to learn not to try it in the first place, though.
Other things that I heard about and am going to try next are canned pumpkin and canned pineapple. I hesitate about the pineapple, I don't know if that might upset their stomachs. I'm going to try the pumpkin as soon as the container of yogurt is gone.
Good luck on solving your problem. Let us know if you find a solution.
