| I Think Our Dog Eats its Poop! I just went to check on him before bed and I smelled his mess. I looked down at the newspaper and seen the mess, mostly smeared stuff in the paper and no turds to be found. My daughter said she seen him do a small piece when we saw him the first time at the breeders and I told her she was crazy. Well now Im the crazy one posting this on a forum...WTF.... this cant be normal |

| This is normal. My Jackie did the same thing when she was a puppy.Then she was such a nice sister, She then show Sadie how to do it. They only problem was Sadie did not enjoy it ( the Taste) as Jackie. She would make the funniest face. Mean while I would be running to get it before she could get it. Her vet said to buy this pill from pet smart and give it to them. It lasted about 6 months or so. They out grow it. They are so used to watching there Mom do it with there poop.YUCK

| I'm a member of poop eaters momma's anonymous... Harley eats his poop whenever he eats anything with grains in it. I switched to a grain free food and it helped, but the pineapple method mentioned in megansmomma's thread is very successful. I've recommended it to quite a few people and it's worked.

| Josie is the pooper scooper as we call her at our house. Pineapple works for her too. It was so funny when we discovered what she was doing. My son discovered it. He was like it was there then it wasn't. I know Josie ate it Mom, I know I seen it there. LOL My sons reaction was funny. |

| It's true. There are many of us that fought this losing battle. It is not easy. Teddy is a poop eating survivor. We are so proud of him. Good luck with MM's protocol, she really is the YT Poop Guru!!
