When I first got my little dog, she would always turn around and start smelling her poop - I'd always tell her "No no no" and quickly take her away.
She seemed to respond to this - and we haven't had much of a problem.

But - I know what you mean. My little Bichon thought the cat's litter box was full of toys. I was always after him. I don't have the cats now, so that solved that problem.

I have heard about the pills one poster mentioned. They would certainly be worth trying.

You'll never believe this one. I had one dog that was so clean that if any of my other animals went to the bathroom in the house, she would hide under my bed for hours so she wouldn't get in trouble. And, if I wasn't home, she would take any pet's poop and move it and pile it up by the back door. I actually caught her doing this a couple of times.


Good luck! Carol Jean

Thank you for writing me back, Carol Jean. Yah, you are right. It's hard to believe that you had a dog that would pile up poops by the back door. Wow!! That is really something to see. How does the dog gets so neat?

I had try the pill and it did work for a while but then I think she got use to it. She is almost 6 months old now. I though if I can catch her in the act and tell her to leave it she might stop. But she wouldn't do it when I am in the room (unless I was cooking or in the bathroom). She is too smart sometimes. I can't believe I am trying to out smart a puppy. She should be the one who's trying

I am glad you don't have the problem any more. I just gave her another bath last night 'cause it's hard to play with a dog with pooping on her. She would jump around and small pieces of you know what would be falling down from her and that's just too much for me handle. I got to catch her in the act somehow.

Thanks again for writting me back. Have a happy holiday.
