Hi Digichart, Firstly, I am a certified dog adviser. (CDA). Your dog is suffering from a condition known as coprophagia. There are numerous possible cause...

my dog keeps eating his poop. Mad
so i went to search the net to find ways to stop him from doing that. disgusting.
and i came across a site saying that there are additives that you can put into your dog's meal and make their poops taste horrible. and they would stop eating it.
so anyone knows where i can get them? the thoughts of him eating poops just totally makes me sick... Mad

Maybe u should clean up after he pooped? Very Happy

this bad habit shd have be conditioned in the pet shop whr u got him from whr the shop owners r irresponsible. only thing you can do is train him

watch him closely as he poos once hes done u can do it either of 2 ways.

1) if he starts tryg to eat the poo. pull him away from it n scold him. be feirce and stern.

2) if he starts tryg to eat the poo. pull him away to another part of the room or a different part of the house. reward him w proper doggy snacks tt he finds irrisistable, compliment him/her thou it had jus saved your life.

both tactics take time. be patient.

That’s why there’s a old saying “Gou Gai Bu Liao Ci Si”. My sis used to put chilli padi on my doggie’s poops and leave it there. One of her methods to stop her from eating her own poops.

digicharat SG

i've thought of that method too. but problem is he poop irregularly sometime whole day never poop at all.
lots of time i went in to check its too late.
thats why hopping to find those additive to add into the meal to make his poop taste horrible. so he will not eat it.

digicharat SG

there are special kind of chocolate made specially for dogs. Laughing

FBI SG

if u heard of a chinese saying " gou shi gai bu liao chi shi"

means dog can never change the habit of eating poo Laughing

skeujin SG

all these chemicals may not be safe for your dog and he mite suffer from adverse side effects.

digicharat SG

rewarding the dog produce better results than punishing it. Cool

If your dog 'song', then let your dog eat his own poop lah.

If you have issues with that, it's really your own preconceived ideas of what 'should' or 'should not' be that's the problem, not your dog's behaviour.

There are healthy bacteria (ie. good bacteria, bad bacteria is present only in diseased animals) and undigested nutrients in poop, that the dog intuitive recognizes.

Just because humans find it disgusting and don't do it themselves, doesn't mean they should impose their preferences and dogma onto other beings, such as their pets, against their will. Especially by adding into their food horrible chemicals that taste awful after undergoing the digestive process. It's kinda cruel.

Please respect the free will of your dog. He never force you to eat your poop, so please don't force him not to eat his own poop.

digicharat SG

that is for stray dogs.
domestic dogs different. Laughing
