Hi everyone, so we have been working on house training but Marty still uses the pads when he can't get outside. For the past 2 weeks he has gotten into the habit of picking up his poo and eating it! I have been feeding him pineapple to make his poo taste bad(with every meal the past 3 days), but this isn't working.
Today I found him eating it again ( I left him alone for literally 15 minutes to get ready for work) and there was something stringy in the remainder. It could have been some garbage or something he ate but I am worried that its worms. What do I do? We have a vet check up coming in a couple weeks should I just wait until then or get something sooner?
