Owners report the stinky breath and poop eating stops once they've switched their diet to raw so I'm ready and will report how it goes in a week or so. It's frustrating when he has food in his bowl and he'd rather chew on poop or try and eat tile mortar. Seriously sends me a message he's missing something.
He's teething, and chewing on everything and anything is common. Make sure you have chewing toys available. The teething also causes stinky breath, so that may not go away until he stops teething no matter what you feed. Try and pick up the poops as fast as possible, but even this is fairly normal in puppies and most outgrow it.
