This is gross but can you tell me why my dog likes to eat poop?

–Miranda

Dear Miranda,

That is gross and I've never ever done that before. Ok, I've done it! I think you'll find this article on Coprophagy In Dogs helpful. It covers why dogs like to eat poop and strategies to prevent that behavior. I must admit, I feel better about not being the only dog that has taken a bite or two—just don't tell my humans.
