Adult dog eats own feces (I'm not kidding) HELP
I really need a lot of successful advice. My dog eats small amounts of her own feces after she poops. I have to continually be with her when she goes to stop this gross behavior. I have tried, through my vet, a product called "Forbid" and it did not work with her.

Believe it or not but dogs eat their own and other dogs faeces because it's full of vitamins, minerals etc. I don't know what you feed your dog but if it's tinned meat (yeah right) and dried food that you add water too (yuk) then your dogs not getting a proper diet. Feed it raw meat, beef, turkey/chicken carcasses remove the meat from the turkey/chicken and let it eat what's left, rabbit, road kill etc, that's what mine gets and I've never been to a vet with him. On Yahoo Groups you'll find a place for like minded people that feed raw meat to their dogs/cats/ferrets etc, it's called Raw Meaty Bones, subscribe and learn something that most of the sheeple out there haven't a clue about. You'll also find a few books written by a vet called Tom Lonsdale about feeding your dog/cat etc Raw Meat. Redman |

I have tried, through my vet, a product called "Forbid" and it did not work with her. -- Banjogal Honestly this is NOT gross behaviour, "Gross" is subjective, pretty much by definition. ALL dogs do this, Many dogs do it. it's part of their Wolf gene. Whoopsie! Believe it or not but dogs eat their own and other dogs faeces because it's full of vitamins, minerals etc. Um, nope. Like other animals (notably humans) dogs can have eating compulsions, or sometimes they just eat thing because they like the way they taste. One approach to solving the poop eating problem then, is at the pre-processing stage, by adding something to make the poop taste bad. My understanding is that most people haven't had a lot of success with that. I have a big-time poop-eater and my approach has been to keep the yard clean. I don't know what you feed your dog but if it's tinned meat (yeah right) and dried food that you add water too (yuk) then your dogs not getting a proper diet. Aha! That's what this is about. "My dog eats poop" "Feed raw" "Cold front coming in" "Feed raw" "Burma has arrested hundreds of dissidents" "Feed raw." It's a cult, not a feeding strategy. And you'll note that this joker talked about ingredients but not actual nutrition, because these jokers arenn't interested in actual nutrition. that's what mine gets and I've never been to a vet with him. I don't blame you - if I fed my dog the way you feed yours I'd stay away from people with academic training in nutrition, too. On Yahoo Groups you'll find a place for like minded people That's *so* important! You should always avoid people who disagree with you!! -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Prouder than ever to be a member of the reality-based community |

"Melinda Shore" wrote in message ... This is exactly what I'm talking about, uneducated buffoons like you that believe only one side of the story and are afraid to try anything for themselves. So tell me, how are those shares you have in the processed animal food companies doing? Believe it or not your dog if you have one is a modified wolf, no whoopsie there, just that you're an idiot. BTW as I can't be arsed answering every piece of your garbage my dog doesn't eat faeces, so that's got nothing to do with why I feed him raw meat. Bwhahahahahahahahaha Redman |

We have someone who's never cracked a book, never talked to a veterinary nutritionist, doesn't know much about morphology and evolution ... an ignoramus! You'll note that while asserting the value of this ingredient or that ingredient, not only do you pay no (as in "zip," "zero," "nada," "zilch") attention to nutritional balance, you're not even paying attention to nutritional components.

I really recommend checking it out because you can not only curb this (what we think is disgusting) habit, but you can learn about which commercial foods are good, which ones to avoid and other training and obedience tips. I hope this helps! My blog is: http://i****inglovedogs.blogspot.com/ |
