My dog is DISGUSTING! My dog, Millie Lite, eats her own poop, and other dog's poop. I don't know if this is normal. I really don't. I took her to the vet and the vet gave me some stuff to sprinkle on her food to make her poop taste gross but IT JUST ADDS FLAVOR!!! I don't know what to do to get my dog to stop eating her poop! HELP!!! For anyone who can give a serious and reasonable answer, I will rate a five.

Hey!
It's best to deal with this behavior immediately because once it becomes a habit it's typically very difficult to change. One of the best, and most obvious, solutions is to keep your yard or other areas clean and poop-free. You can also try putting cayenne pepper or Tabasco sauce on the poop itself to discourage your dog from eating it. If in your yard, you can also try diverting your dog's attentions from the poop to something else he enjoys, such as toys or playtime. If your dog is in the habit of eating poop while on walks, it's best to keep him on a leash. Otherwise, a wire muzzle can be used, which will keep your dog from eating anything, but be certain never to leave your dog muzzled and unattended.
Good Luck!
