I would use the pineapple for a couple of weeks, breaking the habit is important. After that I would try without pineapple, and if it starts eating poop again, I would consider changing foods to an easier to digest protein. These rules apply more to an adult dog than a puppy, sometimes puppies eat poop, just because it's there!

Thanks! You're so helpful. I feed her wellness core puppy.
