Default Coprophagia. Yuck!

Coprophagia (Eating Feces) | ASPCA

Our new dog Beau often does this or he did. I try to follow him around when at Doggie Doo Run Run as well as on walks. It is boon probably to people who would complain about Beau's poop on their yards, I have to get it up ASAP or he eats it. And, that means I have to get as much as I can see.

Hopefully, he will grow out of this coprophagia. He only eats his poop and this is only when it is fresh as far as I know.

Anyone else had a dog that gobbled its poop? How did you get him or her to stop. I know of some people at DDRR who have dogs who do this who carry pepper or something like that which stops their dogs from munching poo. These dogs will eat any dog's feces, however, not just their own.
