Cat food is very high in protein. Just take a gander at the nutrition information on the side of the bag. :o) Most of the protein is passed, as the way dogs see it....treats! Some dogs do this because they are lacking something nutritionally and other just do it because it's good. I would first try a daily care vitamin, that can be purchased reasonably cheap from Revival Animal--just to see if a little boost helps.

Because as a rule cat food is quite high in fat and therefore is tasty. So dogs like to eat cat poo as they think it is very tasty. This is a gross thing I know and can be embarrassing if they do it when other people are present. My Lab does it all the time, she thinks it chocolate!

Eating another animals droppings or even rolling in it is natural. The dog is taking the smell of the cat out of the air so he only smells his own scent. In the wild a dog would hunt and to mask his own scent he would roll in another animals droppings. They will also urinate or deficate over another animals urine or droppings to cover it with his own scent when in his own territory. Its just a natural thing.

"Dogs like to eat poop. That's really all there is to it. People find it disgusting, dogs find it delightful. Still most people want it to stop. With that in mind I put together a short page full of links to other people's ideas about the causes of poop eating (more elegantly called "Coprophagia") and ideas on how to stop it."

yeah yucky isn't it, my dog digs up cat poo near a fence in the park, guess it must taste nice, if you want him to stop squirt him with water or shout no at him

All dogs do it. I've asked my vet & she said her dog did too. Guess it tastes good to them.
