My pup did this and no matter how much I told him "NO" or tried to stop him he'd still eat it. He was fast too. He'd even find cat poop in the yard and eat it. I thought he would outgrow it, but he didn't. This is what I did. I put a little bit of Accent (flavor enhancer) on his food. The MSG in it makes the poop taste bad. My dog uses the bathroom outside, so I would sprinkle cayenne pepper on his old poops and the cat's poop. Don't worry he didn't eat it. He just got a whiff and he didn't want any of that action. I don't know if it was the Accent or the pepper but he stopped eating poop in just one day.
