Hi everyone, so i just witnessed something gross. My little yorkie puppy Oliver, almost 4 months now, likes to eat cat poop. This, i know, is pretty normal. The gross part is this. My room mates Shih Tzu just pooped and Oliver started smelling it and then i watched as he started to eat it. I intervened of course, but not before he could grab a whole chunk of it! I've seen him do this before but thought it was a fluke. I'm worried this is something bad. Does anyone have any suggestions!! I know there are a million reasons why he could be doing this i just don't know how to narrow them down!
Also i'd like to add that my room mates Shih Tzu is not spayed and we have been wondering lately if she is going into heat. Could this be the reason?

Thanks so much!!!!!
