poop-eater

How do I get my 3 month old Rottweiler puppy to stop eating his own poop ?

I have had the same issue with my 4 1/2 month old Bernese.  We have tried special organic pills (potty mouth), that didn't work.  Also tried the pineapple juice in the food (that upset his stomach).  So far, we have found the best thing is to pick up his poop right after he goes.  Our vet told us that we were lucky...Cooper only eats his own poop and could care less about others.  Another remedy to try would be tabasco sauce on the poops outside.

we tried the tabasco on poops outside and she couldn't wait to go lick it off. (i was told to that by my parents vet) i think it's a 'grow out of' thing. peyton did. it was also about the same time we changed food though. we went to adult instead of puppy. not sure if that helps or makes ya more confuzed.

Bodhi is just the opposite....he won't eat his own poop but chows on everyone elses, lol!  We keep joking about hiring him out as a pooper-scooper service....tot ally disgusting, but he would be great at it.....
