HELP. Hes still eating his POO! So Ive tried giving Lucky pumpkin and pineapple and hes still eating his poop. I came home today to find him on the bed eating his poo. Ive tried scolding him and he still does it. He doesnt eat it when he goes outside just when he goes inside ! I just dont know what to do any more with him. Anyone have any more ideas on how to stop his nasty habit |
There is something called potty mouth I've seen at Tractor Supply you could try, looks like a powder you put on their food. The pineapple usually works for me, I use dried pineapple instead of regular, lots less messy, they just think it's a treat. |
I will try the dried pineapple . I hope that works better! |
You could try squirting him with water when he does this. It works for alot of bad habits. (Squirt bottle) |
What do you feed him? I mean his kibble?? Some dogs will eat their poo if they are on a lower quality food....because they aren't getting enough nutrition... I had one dog that did that but as soon as I put her on premium dog kibble she stopped. If you are feeding her premium food then I'd try the dried pineapple....but if your not sure the quality...there is a thread on yorkie nutrition that you can look up and see how your kibble is rated. I only feed my girls 6 star dog kibble...however 3 and up is much better quality than anything you will get at Walmart...or grocery stores..all those foods are 2 stars and under...

I agree on the kibble part too! I have mine on Wellness core and it's cut down their bad habit, but they still "taste" it every now and then and I don't want them to like it! |
I heard many people on Yorkie Talk say feeding their dogs Pineapples did not stop them from eating their waste. I decided to research this topic on the internet. I found a good website that gave good information on how to prevent or stop this behavior. I hope the information given on the website might help you and your dog. :D http://www.paw-rescue.org/PAW/PETTIPS/DogTip_PoopEating.php |
I've been giving Bailey pineapple for over a week and it hasn't helped either. She knows I get mad when I see her do it, so she only eats it when I'm not looking. :rolleyes: Sneaky. I'm hoping to switch her food from Eukanuba to Wellness. |
i've tried the potty mouth for 3 weeks and it dont work either |
My vet recommended a pill to stop it. The technical term on the box is coprophagia. I went to petsmart and asked the clerk, "Where are the stop-eating-your-poop pills?" They're with the vitamins. I give one to my dog every morning. It has helped and he LOVES them. |

Yes it is. The blue box...it may be a blue bottle now. I think they repackaged. You can get them off of Amazon for a decent price. |
