The situation is somewhat common, I guess, I have a dog with a rather gross habit, she is a poop eater. We have tried the "dis-taste" product from Drs. Foster & Smith, but it hasnt worked, she gets the high end of the dose and still wants to snack on her recycled food. I don't really know the reasons for this, is it lack of something in her food? She east the same food as my other dobe and she doesnt have the same habit. What steps do I take to stop this habit, I watch her when she goes outside, and stop the behaviour as soon as it starts, but there are times when I am not right there and she does manage to consume the whole pile. Will this hurt her? or make her sick? I thought perhaps she would outgrow it but she doesnt seem inclined to stop so I am going to bring it up with my vet next time we see her, but I wanted to get some feedback here since she isnt due to see her vet til early next month for her nail trim.
