Title: dog eating cat poop
Post by: Hoppinchins on August 08, 2011, 09:57:06 AM

My puppy likes to eat cat and chinchilla poop. I was wondering if anyone's dog does this or how to get her to stop. My bf keeps the cats litter box pretty clean but there is going to still be stuff in it.

Our dogs do that too, unless you block everything off they will keep doing it.

This is not a good thing to dog's health.most of the time they get sick after sometimes.Try to avoid that habit from your dog.

My GSD eats my chins poop and use to eat the kitty poop. We broke him on the kitty poop by watching him like a hawk and when he went to the litter box pop out of no where and scare him. We did this for a few days and he got tired of us scaring the crap outta him that he finally stopped going to the litter box. Now the chin poop I have only caught him eating that once or twice. And since its mainly only hay I don't see any harm in it.

I have a small dog and have been training him not to each chin droppings, he's doing great. My cat is using a big container as a litter box, so he wouldn't flick.The pans are so low.

Since my dog is small, it was easy to construct something to block off the litter boxes. She does still eat chin droppings from time to time.

A dog eating horse poop... Interesting.

Ozzy,
What is a GSD?
