I have tried that now for over a month, feeding it to them in
the morning. It doesn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?
I will ask my vet when I see her this month. They go outside
to potty, and even though it is winter here, they still try to
eat it.

Hey Norma, I am Cathe, and I am also in Mandan, ND!! How about that!! The funny thing is that today, I was going to post the same problem!!
I have had yorkies for 20 years. I get this pup a couple months ago and she eats poop. No, not her poop, the other dogs poop! Little pooper!!
Well a few days ago I went to the N. Walmart. They are now carrying a line of products called 'Pro Pet' and I found 'stool-eating preventative'. I bought it and have only used it two days. It says it takes a little while, but I am ever hopeful!
Here it is with below 0 temps and I am out running around yard picking up poop immediately so she won't get after it. Only good thing is with all this snow, that only the walkways are clear!
She just had a complete vet check yesterday, poop included and she is healthy. She had baby teeth that were still intact so I had that taken care of. I go to 'Bismarck Animal Clinic' up by the home depot. Get this, my bill came to $481. !!!! Man I have been going there for about 20 yrs but they are getting so expensive! I love the place, as they spacifically are known to take care of toy breeds but this is way out there! Where do you take your dog(s)? I would be interested to know what other prices for procedures are at other vets.
Have a good 1-11-11
