You can put brewers yeast (lack of Vitamin B) or pineapple juice (makes the poo taste like crap to them) on their food - in a day or two they will stop eating it.

my chi used to order the cat box sampler when he was a puppy, every now and again he would come running into the living room with a "crushed peanut coated tootsie roll" in his mouth

I referred to him as
litter lips
tootsie tounge
the turd burgler
and other things that used to get me panned.

Our Shepherd will do that - I call her the Turd Burglar also.

That's funny! I like the turd burgler the best!

for the larger dogs you can also slip M-80s under the pile and detonate it right when the dog is approaching it.
breaks em pretty quick.

my dog doesnt eat her own...if there is bunny poop in my yard she loves it! Gross I know...I asked the vet and she said to be honest its normal and it just means they picked up a nasty habit. I thought it was because maybe she is lacking something in her diet but apparently not!

dogs eat cat poop because cats do not fully digest their food, so it is like eating food to them. I would catch my lab doing it and she would have little stuck all in her teeth.

blood test should show if they have a nutrient deficiency - otherwise its just a bad habit.
