But before you start adding anything to his food, I'd suggest keeping a close eye on him. Every time you catch him in the act of eating his poop, make sure he knows that you're not pleased with his habit. |
Could you explain a little further about what the Solid Gold S.E.P. is and what does that stand for? Is it made by the same company that makes Solid Gold dog food? We moved to a house with a fenced yard which is great for our Yorkies, but Joey, my only poop eater, knows when one of the dogs is about to poop and actually tries to catch it while it's coming out. By the time I get to him, he has already dug in and it is disgusting. Now he is eating his poops and four other dogs'! If I yell and try to get him, the poor dog who is pooping thinks I am yelling at him. It's been a real problem.
