I have done a lot of research about Intraspecific coprophagia, or when a dog eats other animal's feces. Most of the solutions, unfortunately, are in reference to making their own fecal matter taste bad by buying powders, adding pineapple to their diets, etc. My question is, when they suffer from Intraspecific coprophagia, or eating OTHER animals poop (and rolling around in it), what can you do? I have a puppy - 10 months old - that is a small dog (which are said to be more common perpertrators of this nasty habit), and he has recently gotten into the habit of rolling around and/or eating feces from other animals. He has never eaten his own feces. Any suggestions, other than stop taking him to the dog run and the beach?
