[Dailydrool] POOPY ISSUE

[sfwill at aol.com]

i had the same problem with Gus.  would eat his poop when left alone in the yard.  so then i started escorting him out, and "flagging" the poop with a white wired stake so i could go out later and pick it up, night or day.  after a while of not eating it, he stopped turning around wanting to get at it.  but i still flag it and pick it up later.  i also now bring him to a section of the yard that he doesn't have access to while on his run.  so if i don't get out immediately to pick it up, i can still leave him out to wander on the run, but not eat the poop.  i received several suggestions from the Drool, lemon juice, tabasco, different stuff to pour on it, but i find flagging it and going back later works for us.  also, like i said, he doesn't seem that interested in it anymore.
good luck!
