Beagle eating Poop

Asked Apr 25, 2006, 12:18 PM — 1 Answer
All,

I have a beagle female and not only does she eat her own pooh, she's begun to go into the cat box and pull out the cat's pooh.

How can I stop this, and keep the cat using his box? I know of the stuff to put in her food to prevent her from eating her own, but the cat's stuff (along with the litter) is just terrible.

Thanks!

Hi, Cici,
This is sometimes normal behavior.
Here is a link with some good explanations:
Stopping Dogs From Eating Poop
Your dog may not be getting enough vitamins, nutrients, and minerals in the food. Try feeding a good brand of dry dog food, if not already. You can also try changing the food. Best of luck.
