I dont remember what it is called but their is a supplement that Petco has that you can give them (I think you put it on their food) that makes their poop not appetizing and they will quit! My mom used it on her weenie dog and it work wonderfully! The only problem we had left was she wouldnt eat just her poop...she also ate others poop so we had to give it to all the pets (cats and dogs) to keep her from eating any poop! LOL!! |
Hi and thanks . I have tried the pineapple and it does seem to be working a little He just sniff's his poop for a while instead of eating it. It must make his poop smell bad to him:) |

I have to laugh My guys when they were puppies would eat poop :eek: Not only is it disgusting but it can bring on a whole host of stomach problems as they got older they grew out of it and the pineapple thing does work sometimes :confused: |
Hi Joeyp yes the pineapple does work . He is not going near it now.Just poops and walks towards me for the treat:) Believe it or not before he preferred his poop to the treat:confused: |

mybe something wrong? i would take him too the vet.. Coby i believe came from a bad breeder well this is strange too come from a bad breeder he's supper clean i just found out when he poops around the house it's because he dosnt like peeing and pooping on th same wee pad so i try too take him outside if i can catch him in time before he has too go but by me placing two wee pads on the floor he's fine.. i would think theres mybe something wrong if he's eating poop |
Fresh or canned? My two new puppies, Bandit & Peanut will eat Rita's poop, not their own or each other's or the other two's, just her's. So, I keep a water bottle and pooper scooper handy, I spray them while trying to pick her's up before they get to it! I think I'd like to try the pineapple, it's gotts be easier. Does the pineapple have to be fresh or can it be canned?:confused: |

Thanks Ally173, a trip to the market is in order!:) |
eating poop I have a 5 month old male yorkie Love him crazy! He was also doing the poop eating, the trick that has worked, like others' have said is pick up right away... I also always discouraged him said, No! Picked him up and away from the poop. When he was about 3 months, I also tried to pick up the poop when he was munching on his treat... Now that he is older, he does not seem as interested, I think he also understands that I do not want him eating it .... To this day I close the screen door so he is not in my way or trying to fight me for the poop. Once I dispose I walk in a praise him. Yorkies are the best ... they are stubborn and hard to train, but with A LOT of patience they turn out to be low maintenance dogs, that just want to cuddle and play. I adore my Rocco! Despite all the poop chasing he initially put me through ... he is the best! :) |

He has been to the vets and is going back soon for second shots. He has stopped eating the poop a not long after I gave him the pineapple. |
I've had adults eat it too. Puppies ( at 5 & 6 months) know they're not supposed to eat it. When you say "don't eat that" and you watch it as you scramble for the paper towels as they try to rush for the warm poo. They know it's wrong! I've tried all the things and none of them have worked for some dogs. None except changing foods. I forgot and went back to feeding Wellness. It was years later & some other yorkies starting eating poop. The problem is that some food is made with ingredients that are too good. Even after they digest it, it's still mighty tasty to them. The bread analogy was good. Some puppies outgrow it. Some dogs just just need a change in food. I'm glad you brought it up. Nice to be reminded I'm not alone. Nothing like your Princess dragging poop then kisssing you. LOL Oh, but they're precious and they're innocent. |
