what is the best way to cure my shitzu from eating her own doggy doo?

Question

i love my 8 month old shitzu very dearly but she has this problem where she doos and turns around or goes finds her dog doo and actually eats it!!! shes done this since abot 3 months old.....what do i do!!!!

Answer 1

Many dogs will eat it. Do not give her the oppurtunity to eat it. Pick it up immediatly after she does her business. My golden ate hers and she eventually stopped after we didnt give her the oppurtunity to.

Answer 2

Pick it up immediately and dispose of it. There is also a product you can add to their food that is supposed to make it taste bad to the dog. I do not remember what it is called, check with your local pet supply or vet.
