Hi, my name's Wilson and I still like to eat...

[JeannieCO]

!!! My Mommy doesn't understands that these warm fresh tasty little pooh snacks are so yummy to me and I don't understand yet why these warm little tasty snacks are so NASTY to my Mommy when I indulge......

Ok so I've tried the Forbid from the Vet and Petco's Coprophagia. They, all three dogs - pups Wilson and Jack, and our Senior Ace, get the pills. He knows he not suppose to eat but ONLY when he see me watching him and then scolding him when he's caught. He shrugs his head from from left to right and scurries along but then if I'm not watching he'll head right on back. He just turned 4 months on Sat.

Any other ?

ps...2 pups are quite the handful too, oh my...

Start teaching him the "leave it!" command. Also, feed all three dogs fresh (not canned) cut pineapple.

Also, what food are you feeding him?

 

[JeannieCO]

I've been working on the Leave It for several weeks now and it works when he's caught or getting near it. I tried canned pineapple but my older dog can't stand it and will pick through it in his food (we tried that first). My senior (he's almost 13) gets ProPlan (he's been on that we can't change that) and Jack the other pup gets Wellness, the same as Wilson. Wilson will also eat his own poop. I'm also as diligent as I can possibly be on getting the poo picked up right away but it's not always possible.

What's the difference in the fresh pineapple. I will try anything at this point.

There is also a vitamin or something you can give. I don't know what it is called tho....

@jeanneco..he is so darn cute! who cares if he eats a little poo??

Try the meat tenderiser [MENTION=2014]JeannieCO[/MENTION] but apparently most puppies grow out of this habit anyway

Hhmmm, no answer for you I did watch a show that they also said pineapple will deter a pup from eating poo, but again it was not about dealing with a bully!

Canned plain pumpkin ( not the pie filling) tastes wonderful on the way in and horrible on the way out . Try feeding that to all of your dogs. Also it's really good for them.

Lucy grew out of poo eating so I never had to do anything except find a new place for the cat box so she couldn't get her kitty crunchies. However, I have heard that meat tenderizer sprinkled on their food works and so does pineapple and pumpkin. Good luck!

It's a good thing he's cute too.

Jen, I tried the meat tenderizer for about 5 days before the pills, didn't work either. Would you believe I usually always have canned pure pumpkin to make muffins with and I'm out and apparently there's a shortage. Go figure. I'll look this weekend and hopefully they have it back in. I've read that it's really good for them too.

Thanks all for the suggestions again. I think I just needed to vent. My my little guy to pieces but it gets quite frustrating at times.

I think the frog told him to do it and I agree with everyone else He is too darn cute!!!

Update: Wilson's vet today said to go back to Adolfs meat tenderizer and give all dogs 2tsps per feeding. I'll report back with an update in a week or so.

Thanks again everyone!
