Also if the food you are feeding your big dog is not that high quality may have something to do with it. What are you feeding your yorkie? I think you may have to find out the reason why your yorkie is doing it in the first place instead of just trying to get the poop to taste gross(er) so she won't do it anymore. Are either of the dogs getting table scraps or people food?
Also maybe you could let your dogs in the garden one at a time and clean up before the other goes out? |
I saw that episode. I would really try to make your rottie slow down. Victoria did it by dropping a little bit of food in the bowl at a time, and she raised the grade of dog food. It worked! I agree with capt_noone While you are trying different solutions don't let your dogs out at the same time and she won't have the chance to get to it. Or you get your vet's professional opinion by taking them both to vet for evalution of their food and eating habits... Good Luck to you...I know it's gross to watch your baby chomp on your rottie's brownies. When Prince was 3 months old I saw him playing with his poop and I was like YUK lol
