After 5.5 years of battling the poop eaters, I have finally won!

I home cook for mine and their recipe from my Vet-Nutritionist called for 1/2 teaspoon Konsyl fiber for each AM and PM meal. I did try it way back when, but it made the consistency too thick, so I went the Biopectin fiber route instead...Well BIG MISTAKE, I should have stuck to the Konsyl...For the past 6 months I have been adding only a flat 1/4 teaspoon of the Konsyl fiber to AM and to PM meals and like magic, we are a poop eating free house now...

Not sure if the Konsyl makes the poop undesirable or if it makes my two "full" for the day that they don't want to snack, or a combo of both. Whatever the reason, all I can say is it worked! I wish I would have stuck to the Konsyl in the beginning...

P.S. I have tried every product out there for combatting poop eating, every method and every technique. My did it bc they were bored and it simply became route and habit for them....

I still throw a YAY poop going into the toliet party and give a yummy treat for good poop behavior!
