Golden Rule with poop eaters.....NEVER, NEVER let them lick your face or breathe or BURP (NEVER!) in your general direction.....if you suspect they've been snacking! We've found that picking up after them on a continual basis is what works best for us and I think we've tried most every "cure" we've ever heard of.
Mine are so sneaky about it. They wait to see that two are pooping at the same time and they KNOW I can't run fast enough to pick up one of them and they scarf it up as it comes out of the...well, you know!
Tell me about it!! I remember once one of the girls ate the poop before it even hit the ground!!! Well the good thing about it is that you don't have to clean so much poop up as they've cleaned it up them self!!!! Just kidding

Ha! Ha!! Thank you for the Friday afternoon chuckle. Even running toward them with the poop scooper and yelling does not deter...then they snatch and run. So gross...I just give up. Winter is worse...they are like little frozen treats. Why is it I spend so much on dog food again??
I've often wondered why nobody makes pizza flavored dog food. Maybe poop flavor would be a hit? Mine like kitty bon-bons and deer poop even better. Ugggggghhhhh!!!
I give all three of my dogs about a 1/4 cup of pineapple with their meals. It doesn't seem to stop it all together, but there has been a decrease in the frequency, which really is saying a lot. I guess it makes the taste less appealing??? Ewww... Other than that, I just try to clean it up.
Whoever discovers the cause and cure for poop eating will be a millionaire, that's for sure!
And this seems to be one situation where "DROP/LEAVE IT!!!!" doesn't work either!
On a more serious note, it's SO nice to know that our dogs are like everyone elses - they're NOT perfect & yes, they gross us out but they ARE the best! Tks for the Friday afternoon levity!

Mine love kitty bon-bons too!! And goose poop oh and not mentioning the horse poop! But like someone else said... I'm glad that my Labs are normal and like the rest of them!
