Her poop is too soft to pick up. Sometimes it happens as we walk away, or sometimes its as she does it. I try not to pick her up because she hates being picked up. So I avoid it in fear of being bit by her. Which is why I am not as fond of her as I am of my little maggie. As maggie enjoys all form of interaction from me, and my mom- not so much of others. If I use a treat, it could possibly work depends if she's not distracted by something else as well.
I once tried to pull her away from the poop and she wouldn't give way because she just wants to keep scattering her poop and I heard her coughing so I panicked and stopped pulling. If I try a harness she will pull with much more force which i think she'd still get hurt.
I want to teach her to walk better with treats. But to be very frank here, I am a bit scared of her because she never seemed to learned biting inhibition. So this means if I give her a treat by hand she will run towards my hand, probably, and would accidentally bite me as she does it. Last time it happened she drew a little bit of blood and it hurt quite a lot. I tried the yelping or making a pained noise when she does that to get her to learn but she just keeps doing it. Doesnt put 2 and 2 together.
I might try rubber boots on her while I figure it out so I could clean them out and sterilize them.
