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!
Now I am wondering if it could be the increase in fiber that will make the dogs stop eating their poop? Brown rice is a fiber as well. So really makes me It would make sense that increasing the fiber content would change the "end" result.
