It is a kind of disease for dogs to eat poop, called fecal disease, which is caused by the lack of trace elements. All you have to do is go to the pet store and sell some special nutrition powder for pets to feed the dogs. Or you didn't clean up in time when the dog was ready. In fact, dogs love cleanliness and are sensitive to their surroundings. There is another reason, of course, because there are many parasites or other diseases spread through poop, so dogs prefer to eat by themselves in order to prevent harm to the health of other dogs and to bring convenience to their owners (the owners don't have to clean up the poop). My dog is 5 years old now, which happened when he was a child. Generally, they are young, have no time to learn to control defecation, and have no rules. In addition, the puppy urinates a lot, so we put it in the toilet before going out. But when we go home, he often makes this mistake and will be scolded every time he comes back. Of course, the lesson here is not to hit him. When training dogs, you should pay special attention not to hit them maliciously. At most, it is a symbolic pat on his ass or a pat on his mouth, while educating him severely and warning him that this is wrong. Then clean it up every time it goes to the toilet. The food you usually give it should also be balanced in nutrition and take it to bask in the sun. It has been like this for a long time, but it will not be like this when I grow up. In fact, dogs don't always eat poop. I have listed many reasons for eating poop before! It's usually a puppy. The main disadvantage of eating shit is that it makes the host and bystanders sick and makes people feel that family education has failed. Eating dog excrement will not cause much health harm, but there are parasites in feces, and bacteria or molds breed in feces for a long time. Virus pollution in other dog feces, such as canine parvovirus gastroenteritis virus pollution or protozoan infection such as Toxoplasma gondii, can cause other medical diseases. If regular deworming and vaccination can minimize the damage, every untreated dog can be effective and its owner may be affected.

How to stop dogs from changing this bad habit? 》

● 1. Cut off the opportunity: clean the dog immediately after defecation, so that it has no chance to eat shit. If you can't know when it will defecate, put on a mask so that it can't eat shit or may be locked in a cage. The gap at the bottom of the cage should be large enough so that shit won't get stuck in the cage. When walking the dog, you must use a dog chain to prevent it from eating shit again after defecation, and then walk away to praise it.

●2. reprimand and stop in time: dogs should be severely stopped from eating shit and corporal punishment is not allowed, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Don't be punished after eating shit, because the dog doesn't know why you are punished.

●3. Encouragement: praise the dog after defecation, encourage and seduce it with food, make it forget to eat stool and slowly change its habits.

●4. Add a smell that dogs don't like to the feces: After the dog defecates, add very spicy peppers, bitter medicines or smells that your dog doesn't like. What smell your dog doesn't like depends on the owner. Every dog is different, so you might want to try it.

●5. Order to stop: This is only useful if the dog is trained to obey. It must be able to understand your commands, such as no, sit down and wait. When the dog has finished defecation, order it to do some obedience actions to divert its attention and prevent it from eating shit.

●6. Adding substances that dogs don't like after digestion to food: There are some business cases abroad that are added to dog food that has eaten feces. If a dog eats its own feces, it must be added to its dog food. I don't know if there are similar products in Chinese mainland, but the effect is still being evaluated. Some people provide monosodium glutamate, garlic, pumpkin and so on. After digestion, it is added to dog food, and the feces have a bad smell, so dogs don't like it.

●7. Adding digestive AIDS: Some people think that adding digestive enzymes can help digestion, thus preventing stool eating caused by digestive problems. This effect has not been confirmed in the study. You can choose one or more of the above methods at the same time. If other symptoms appear at the same time, it is necessary to consider whether it may be caused by internal diseases, take it to the hospital for examination, and find the real reason for treatment. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The above education for dogs is not to make you hit hard, but to give a verbal warning, or to pat your ass symbolically or knock on the ground with a newspaper, making a sound that scares the dog and telling him not to do that again. Remember never to hit it, because dogs have a good memory. Don't let it associate "terrible" or "beaten" with its "biting, biting" or some unhappy things. As long as it is connected, it will be full of anger, it will think that this "thing" is complaining to you, and then sometimes it will stop biting in front of you, but once you leave it, it will kill it until it knows it is useless. Just like a child's rebellious psychology, the more you fight, the more you fight, and the more you fight, the more you will fight, and it will never change! You should educate him patiently and make him feel that this will only make you unhappy. You should know that the owner is all dogs, and everything dogs do is to please their owners. Once the dog understands that the owner is angry and unhappy, he will not do it in the future. Also, you should know that the dog may bite something to attract your attention, except its tusks, because it thinks that as long as it bites, you will pay attention to it immediately. I think it is necessary to take care of it and care about it. Don't let it be lonely. Spend more time with me at ordinary times. Only by communicating more can we get to know each other better and get along better. My dog is Labrador, especially smart, almost refined, good at winking at people, two-faced, haha. Almost five years. I remember it used to do this when it was a child. After educating it, it won't be like this again when it grows up and understands. I hope these can help you! Treat it patiently and carefully, and you will find that besides some minor troubles, it actually brings you happiness and happiness!
