I saw an episode of Dog Whisperer with that Cesar guy and he was trying to break a Lhso Apso from eating poop. He said dogs eat poop for 2 reasons - boredom and missing nutrients from their diet.

He started giving the dog bananas as treats and it worked! He said she needed potassium and that eating the bananas curbed her urge to eat the poop.

He had some of her poop on the floor and every time she tried to eat it, he stopped her and gave her a little chunk of banana. Eventually, she stopped eating the poop and got bananas as treats all the time.

So, maybe some sort of vitamin deficiency?
