Zoe is eating her own poop.. HELP!! What do I do to stop her from doing this? It's gross.. :( |
Here is a link for a product that has worked great for me, they also have links on how to stop the behavior. Search Results for distaste |
LOL, Max did it for a while when he was a puppy, other than pick the poop up as soon as your baby is done, you can say a firm no, or leave it, or the command you use .There are a few products on the market, but I'm not familiar with them. Good luck |
Thank you for the feed back. |
I feel your pain.......mine has done it only a couple of times. Don't understand why though. He's only done it when he went on the pad. Had a few accidents in other parts of the house, didn't even bother with it or when he does it outside walks away. Dogs are really weird sometimes:D |
a number of folks here have had good results with giving some pinapple (fresh not canned) -- for some reason it makes their poo unsavory. |

Pick them up after they go, if you are around. If you see her eat it, say no, and take her in immediately and brush her teeth. If either of these don't work, you're on your own.:D I wish ya luck. Let us know how things go. |
Poop eating is actually fairly common and there is a name for it, coprophagia. Some experts think the first thing you should do is to check the food you are giving her because food that contains hard to digest proteins, will often leave some of the protein undigested, and this will seem appetizing to your dog. Some proteins are easier to digest than others. Another opinion is that the food is lacking in nutrients, again a food change might be advisable. If your satisfied with the food, some say that adding pineapple, or unseasoned meant tenderizer to the food helps, because it helps to digest the protein the first time around. This link has some other useful tips for stopping coprophagia, or more commonly known as poop eating. :D Stopping Dogs From Eating Poop |
