My Yorkie is eating potting soil ??!! Hi guys..feels strange writing that but my 7 months yorkie keeps eating potting soil and i cant find a way to stop him! does anyone know how can i stop this from happening and how bad is it for my little guy?? Im very worried now. Thanks in advance. :eek: |
It depends on what kind it is, does it have fertilizers, etc, in it? What kind of food does she eat? I ask because if she's missing some minerals in her diet, that could make the potting soil attractive to her. I've even heard of pregnant human women craving potting soil due to dietary shortfalls:eek: |
You mean the soil already in a potted plant? It's likely it contains manure which is why it appeals to him. You could wrap the top of the plant to keep him out. I do know people use moth balls to deter squirrels from disturbing potted plants outside. I don't know if I'd trust a dog to leave those alone though. |
Its a BOY :) he eats Royal Canin for yorkshire terriers and also (because he is just very naughty) he steals my cats tuna and even her cat food!! he is just one crazy little yorkie!!! |
