dog poop

 

In my field of canine work I get asked from time to time "Why do dogs eat poop?"

My personal theory is simple on this one:

  • Because they can
  • Something is lacking in their diet
  • Boredom/Anxiety/Frustration

How to stop the dog from eating poop:

  • Be poop diligent - Pick up their poop immediately thus not giving them the opportunity.
  • Re-evaluate your dogs diet; feed them real food, get rid of the commercial kibble, it’s evil. Give healthy treats to your dog e.g. apples, carrots, raw beef bone, etc.
  • Walk your dog every single day, give your dogs lots of doggie toys and give your dog socializing playtime with other dogs.
  • Hire an animal communicator to ask your dog that very question and see what answers they come up with! You might be surprised!
