What food are you currently feeding? What food are you going to change too?
Being that you leave him alone during the day and he does this, this may start to just become a habit of boredom (like mine).
You can buy a product at the food store called ACCENT (in the spice isle) and sprinkle some of it on his daily food, you may have to do this for a few weeks, but hopefully it will do the trick!

He is on... the name isn't coming to me but it's just a petsmart generic one (nothing fancy about it). The breeder suggested we keep him on it for a few months but I am switching him tonight.
The new food (which I've used before) is Eagle Pack for puppies. I'm going to mix 1/2 and 1/2 until his little tummy get used to it.
I'm hoping it has more nutrients to keep his 'poop eating' urges to a minimum.
