| Pineapples and Yorkies???? Ladies my daughter was watching "Me or The Dog" show and I overheard that if you give a dog Pineapples that will stop your dog from eating it's poo...Sage does this if I don't get to it first and now I am letting my other 2 gals out all the time in our Yorkie Room with Sage and I'm not always out in the room with them, Sage is getting to their poo before I am and dragging it all over their room and taking it to their bed...I don't my other gals to get this bad habit from her so I heard this now my question is: Does anyone know if giving a Yorkie Pineapple will hurt them at all??? I looked it up on the internet and couldn't find anything about it hurting Yorkies...I sure don't want to give them anything that would be harmful to them... I guess allowing them to eat Pineapple (I was going to use the Dole Brand in the can???) makes their poo bitter and they refuse to eat it....It did stop those dogs from eating their poo. Any thoughts on this? I've tried everything on the poo to stop her from eating and draging it and nothing works. Thanks for any input on this. Lee |

Senior Yorkie Talker | I gave my puppy pineapple because of reading on here and getting suggestions that it would stop stool eating, it never worked for me, if anything it made him get excited and love his poo even more because it came out smelling sweet like pineapple. (I tried fresh & canned) Other things I tried were x. stop stool eating in gel form x. meat tenderizer in his food x. spinach x. digestive enzyme None of those things worked for me, so every time he would poop. I would tell him to sit/stay and leave the poop on the pad for 5 minutes the first poop and ten minutes the second poop, and if he would go to eat. I would tell him no & to sit, if he left it alone then I would praise him and give him a special treat or a special toy to play with. After two weeks of this, he finally stopped eating his stool.
