toilet talk

why is my puppy eating her own poo all the time and trying to eat cat poo too when we are out on a walk never had this problem with my other dogs.any suggestions how to stop this?

apparently you can put pineapple in their own food to discourage eating that . The cat poo no great answer apart from keep your eyes wide open and be on constant alert with a good Noooooooo ready

I think i read somewhere that this is normal with pups you just have to be quick to clean up after they poo to avoid repeats of this

Agree with above, you have to get in there quickly to get rid of it before they do. Good luck

it is best when the dog or cat poops to get to it fast. It cant be pleasant for them or you

Pineapple should help with her own waste and you just have to keep an eye out for others

some dogs just like to eat poo. Lola will eat cat poo, her own poo or Lily's which is vile. Lily doesn't eat poo. The worst thing with lola is if you haven't noticed and she eats a lot she will kindly vomit it back

thank u all for your advice xxx

This is one of the biggest problems I've faced with Zeus, the fact that he always used to eat his poo. He never touches anyone else's poo, just his own. When we first got him, he used to do it all the time. I tried pineapple chunks in his food, "stool repel" tablets from Pets At Home, charcoal biscuits, everything I could find, and nothing worked.

To put it simply, the only thing that will work is telling them off when they do it. Zeus is now 10 months old and he walks away from his poo, he knows he shouldnt eat it, smell it or go near it once its out. But, if I were to leave him in the garden unsupervised, he'd go for it. It might be something you'll never get out of them, but just keep correcting.
