Help, one of my 3 dogs likes to snack on the other dogs tasty morsels left in the backyard...help, how can I get my dog to stop eating dog poop?!? Fosters did have something in their catalog to put in their food to help stop that but I didn't see the stuff in the newest catalog....any suggestions, and yes, she is very well fed!

she a hound?

Get the stuff to add to their food. Or pick up the poop.

i've heard adding pineapple deters them...but it didn't work for my lab. stupid mut! :lmao:

i heard adding pineapple makes it sweeter

I have one that will do that at times. I keep him on a leash and correct him before he even attempts it. :nono:

But I did watch a Dog whisper show where this was an issue, and he said it was due to a potassium deficiency. He gave the dog bites of a banana everytime it ignored the poop.

Mine's just stupid though.

It's called Distaste. Check another pet supply on-line or as a last resort contact PERCO.

Makes me think of this:

Excerpts from a Cat's Daily Diary...

Day 983 of my captivity...

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.
They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash
or some sort of dry nuggets.

Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless
must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to
disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet I had
hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates
what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about
what a 'good little hunter' I am. Bastards.

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in
solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the
noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the
power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means and how to use it to my
advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my
tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again
tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches.
The dog receives special privileges.. He is regularly released - and seems to
be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating with the
guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have
arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe.
For now ...

Most often, there is no reason for it. It's just something gross that a dog will do. It's called corophagia. It's not harmful either.

Omfg Thats Funny Migtig

thts hilarious- just read that to my Dad!!!!!

:yeahthat: Just a nasty habit, and dogs can learn it from other dogs.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I'll look for that stuff at PETCO. and Cowgirl, we do pick up the poop in our yard - daily if it's any concern of yours.

WTF? :roflmao: You asked for advice.

Yes I did, but it was YOU who said to "pick up the poop", simply letting you know we do and don't assume we don't. Thank you.

Day 1543 of Captivity....

I have given up. There is no escape. I have fallen into a deep
depression. All I do now is look out the window and sleep. This is what
my life has become. The captors drug me every now and then with something
called nip. It makes me crazy. But when the nip wears off, alas, I just
go back to sleep. The only joy I get is being scratched under the chin
when they serve me "food". I purr to make them take notice of me, in
attempts to have them flush my toilet more often. But most of the time, I
have to squat over my own sh*t. (sigh) Trying to eat my own hair and choke myself to death always ends up with me coughing up a hairball, only to get whacked on the arse when they find it. I'll look out the window until I
nod off.... again.

Yes I did, but it was YOU who said to "pick up the poop", simply letting you know we do and don't assume we don't. Thank you.

Have a nice day. :rolleyes:

You do the same.

So where is he getting the poop?

So does the poop eater nibble it just as it crowns from the dog doing the pooping?

maybe he thinks it sa soft served icecream machine :confused:

As embarrasing as this is, usually right from the factory, unless she finds something we missed and then it's a tasty frozen treat...it is disgusting and we do our best to keep her from doing such. We do poopy patrol every day but she still manages to find ones we may miss.
I was just glad to hear it won't make her sick, that was my primary concern. It is just nasty though!

The Distaste is probably a waste of money. You might want to try behavior modification. Take her out on a long lead and at the "moment" get closer to her and prevent her from doing the deed...spray her with a water bottle..a firm "no" or something along those lines. Although you don't want her to get the idea that pooping outside is the bad thing. Good luck. Maybe you should just invest in a doggie toothbrush and doggie listerine. :biggrin:

I've tried all of the suggestions that people gave on the forum....guess I'll just keep working on her....thanks again, have a great weekend.

2 dogs 1 cup....:killingme

OMG :killingme

It's my dog that this is about and I must admit, there is some humor to the whole thing, even though it's disgusting!

If that be the truth my dog has no potassium because she lives for the Cat Box Cafe! It seems like we need to follow the cat to the litter box and retrieve it as it drops or my silly little mutt will have it all over the living room in no time.

The Distaste is probably a waste of money.

D's parents used For-Bid (http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=595&cmpid=sc) with their dogs. They said it worked while they fed it, but as soon as they stopped feeding it the dogs started right back up again.

Mine live for cat turds and horse crap, especially when it is frozen(horse crap) and they can play with it first.
